I rang my dad on his mobile last month, from my land line, we were talking for about 8 minutes and then I had to go to work so I said goodbye and put the phone down
when I got home from work I picked up the phone to check for messages and it was still connected to my dad's mobile, I could hear him pottering about (in the pub )
so the phone hadn't disconnected properly and had racked up a £50 charge
now thw land line refuses to connect to mobiles at all - so I can't ring dh, which is a nightmare for our precarious childcare arrangements
the won't rectify it until we pay the extra bill in full, which we will do but can't do quickly
and I DID put the bloody phone down, it's not actually my fault
