Just a 'hesads up to all of you venturing abroad this Winter.

My provider has reduced their 'Fair usage' use of my phone from 12Gb to 5Gb.

I don't recall when they gave me notice of this, and, from memory I think my 'month' ends on the 20th.

It therefore came as a bit of a surprise to receive their text last night to tell me I've already used 80% of my allowance:Eeek:

We leave for Blighty in a couple of days so it's not much of a problem but I will be seeking an alternative strategy for the next time I cross the water.

Didn’t you warn us about this with TalkTalk a week or two ago Derek? I may well be confusing you with someone else of course.

Who knows🤷‍♂️ but can they change the terms mid contract and not punish us for cancelling?? Who knows🤷‍♂️
IQ pulled the plug on us with the GO sim, reduced monthly data usage to 25% and blamed EE, so I guess they can do anything sadly ?

I’m not going completely mad after all! I know it’s not Talk Talk but I wasn’t far off. I think there’s a secret plot, isn’t it called gaslighting or something. To make people think they’re going mad.
