		<description>I feel nauseous for the guy just reading about his accidental $54,000 cell bill. That&#039;s terrible! In response (and so no one else suffers a similar fate), I wanted to write a follow-up post on the topic of cutting cell costs. Specifically, thousands of people are achieving substantial wireless savings through the website &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fixmycellbill.com &quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.fixmycellbill.com &lt;/a&gt;(by a company called Validas) that on average currently saves T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&amp;T, Sprint, and US Cellular customers 22 percent, equating to $484 annually, off their cell bills. I personally save $230 per year through Validas and I have been so impressed with these real results that I recently took a job with the company. 
 
Here&#039;s a quick breakdown of how it actually works. Validas analyzes your online cell bill for free and calculates how much money you could be saving. It turns out that eight of ten wireless customers are paying more than they need to for their plans. Validas fixes these discrepancies by tailoring a customer&#039;s plan to fit their specific needs. If you choose, Validas provides your personalized cell bill adjustment report that is emailed, for five bucks, to your wireless provider in industry specific format so you can actually implement these cash saving changes. If Validas can save you more than $5 on your bill, this obviously provides a very cost effective solution.  
 
Validas is rapidly gaining a reputation as the preeminent advocate for the wireless customer. Check out a feature about the company on The Big Idea with CNBC&#039;s Donny Deutsch at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cnbc.com/id/22782456/. &quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.cnbc.com/id/22782456/. &lt;/a&gt;Any cell subscriber who wants to cut costs should consider Validas. It&#8217;s free to consult and you only stand to save.  
 
Good luck to everyone trying to reduce their wireless bills.

		<description>This does seem a bit weird.  I&#039;ve only ever been a corporate user of Vodafone but when I was traveling a lot with O2 and Orange they were pretty quick to shut off my service if I hit certain limits.  It could get pretty frustrating as, when roaming, the charge records tend to come in batches so you could go over the limits in a day when a week&#039;s worth of roaming hit the account.

Having done dev work with PAYG GPRS SIMs a lot of the latency problems we had was with ongoing credit checks during the access process, so I&#039;m rather surprised that Voda didn&#039;t just shut him down.

Gut feeling: this one will go away.</description>
