Modern Life is Good-ish
Fifteen years ago, I bought my first mobile phone.
It's one of the 'pay-as-you-go' ones with Orange/EE.
When I've replaced it, I've swapped the sim card over to the new phone each time.
They rang me recently & told me that my 'credit top ups' averaged out at £15 per month & would I like a contract for £9.99.
I declined.
I only use it to receive calls, receive & send texts & play 'Wordfeud'.
I got to wondering what was eating up the £15 a month !
My son-in-law reckoned there were 'apps' that used up credit, even with the phone switched off !
So, next time I ran out of 'talk time' I didn't top up.
I'm still doing with it what I've always done, but with no charge now !
So, whoever was getting my £15 a month, they aren't any longer !
Daft, I call it !
