YOU HAVE YOUR SAY

EVERY week Money Mail receives hundreds of your letters and emails about our stories. Here are some about a pensioner who was charged £10,000 after her mobile provider, Unicom, claimed she had exceeded her data allowance. MY me 90GB CURRENT a month, package as well offers as unlimited just £35. How calls can and these texts charges for be data legally usage clearly enforceabl­e? hasn’t cost The Unicom that much. T. O., Birmingham. IF THE firm is happy that the bill is correct, they should be able to supply a full breakdown of the costs. I would refuse to pay a penny until they did so. A. M., Manchester. EVERYONE thinks that the various Ombudsmen are looking out for the customer. But their first port of call is the contract, and they take a technical view of it. E.C., Manchester. THIS isn’t on the same scale, of course, but her landline and broadband charge of £47 a month seems excessive, too. I’d hope it would be pretty fast broadband, but she doesn’t seem like she needs such an expensive package. V. M., London. THIS woman needs to find a new provider — and preferably one that caps usage. Then there would be no fear of unwanted bills. P. C., Wolverhamp­ton. THE worrying thing is that many customers would have paid up just to stop debt collectors turning up at their door. D. M, Coventry. OTHER people could have been using her phone as a WiFi hotspot. A friend of mine accidental­ly connected his computer to his neighbour’s mobile instead of his WiFi box. He only found out when his WiFi went off because his neighbour went to work. W. C., Swansea, Wales. ÷ WRITE to Tony Hazell at Ask Tony, Money Mail, Scottish Daily Mail, 20 Waterloo Street, Glasgow G2 6DB or email asktony@dailymail.co.uk — please include your daytime phone number, postal address and a separate note addressed to the offending organisati­on giving them permission to talk to Tony Hazell.
