Hi, 

My recent bill shows a charge of £2.44, I have unlimited calls but the bill shows en extra 3 local calls no charge but a total of £2.44? Can anyone explain.

Hi, 

Calls were all short duration local calls, cost is given as zero, total is £2.74, where did the cost come from?

Not seeking any confidential info, but what was the nature of the explanation?

Hi Chris

That's cool, no problem.

PS any more chocolate 😁😁😁

I think we've run out...

Joking aside, I'll see what I can do but I'm afraid I can't make any promises.

Wouldn't feel comfortable providing that, however @Chrisvesey might be happy to tell you.

Re: Strange charge on bill

Hi, 

There were two pages of telephone calls, I missed the two long calls my wife made in the middle of the first page and there is no sub total at the bottom, the second page only had 3 local free calls on it but showed a charge of £2.40ish in total, my fault for not checking properly,

Re: Strange charge on bill

That would have been my suggestion - been startled in a similar way myself - the total is not a subtotal for the page! A minute or two over the hour can be quite expensive. Out of call plan calls are circa 15 per minute - far more expensive than mobile charges.

Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.
