Only then found out his ?41.50-a-month deal didn't include unlimited web use. But his first bill had hundreds of extra charges for online use - some at ?18 a minute. He said his mate told him how to wire his mobile to the laptop as a modem. For him it meant he could download faster than on the handset and get a proper internet connection in the flat. So he downloaded 20 or 30 TV shows and four albums. He assumed it was ok but then the company cut him off, he rang up and found out he owned nearly ?30.000. It seems clear Ian has run up these charges legitimately. Vodafone added the intensity of Ian's downloading was such that by the time their systems flagged anything up he had already racked up a massive bill. Our advice would be to never use a mobile as a modem.
