Why didn't they cut him off?
A lonely guy is fighting against paying his mobile phone bill of £91,184 after he ran up the bill calling chat lines!

His defence, they ought to have cut him off Now ok I can perhaps sympathise with loneliness, but surely no one is stupid enough not to realise how much they are running up ( especially after a £19, 000 first bill!) does he REALLY expect someone to tell a grown man what to do... Or that he isn't responsible for his own actions. They even reduced the bill as a good will gesture yet it's not enough
There seems to have been numerous cases similar recently... Are companies to blame, or is this a new way of getting something for nothing?

I think the companies should bear some responsibility, they allow these calls to be made.

They cancelled his sim and he got another! To me yes maybe in the first instance they should perhaps query the customer... But we aren't kids, surely we have to own our own stupidity?

Besides the fact that after a 19 grand bill you might think twice!

Perhaps an opt in safety net, if you know you will use these numbers, you could pay a hetfy deposit and get a special pin number. Plus notification of how much your last wank cost you....

Or the phone companies could put a limit on how much can be spent and once that is reached you can't dial them anymore.
