*inarticulate scream* ARGH I HATE TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMPANIES. THEY ARE EVIL. Telstra is STILL fucking me around. When I called last the guy said he would pass it on to technical services and in the meantime would give me some free usage. And okay, so I probably shouldn't have used it up so fast (I went on a downloading spree... ehehe.), but I didn't expect to suddenly be charged at EIGHTY CENTS a megabyte after I used it up! WTF. I was being charged ~7-8 cents/megabyte before, and I'm SUPPOSED to be charged 1.6 cents/mb. That has not happened yet. Gaaaaaaah. And of course their call centre's closed right now, cuz it's 8pm on a Saturday night. *sigh* I went from having $75 credit to having $10 within less than 100 mb of usage.... not. amused. Hopefully they're open tomorrow, time to call again! And if they're still going to fuck me around, I'm going to ask about unlocking the damned thing from the Telstra network then I'm heading over to a different one (Three looks okay - though hard to tell since I don't trust these places anymore. But they give you 12 gigs for $149 and it doesn't expire for one year, whereas with Telstra I paid $100 for 6 gigs and it expires in 30 days. Huh. And they're the one company I DIDN'T research before going with Telstra. Excuse me while I kick myself. And I think it costs about $100 to unlock my stick... looked online, but couldn't see any place to have it done online (lots of places for cell phones, but not these... gonna keep looking, but may have to wait and go to an Internet cafe since I barely have any usage left and I am not fucking recharging this thing until I've spoken with Telstra. ...okay, well, we'll see how desperate I get - I might recharge the smallest amount and see what rate they charge me.)
On a more positive note.. went to see a Harry Potter parody show at the Melbourne Comedy Festival today - all 7 books in 70 minutes, by 2 guys. Very funny. Okay so most people there were under 12 or were parents, but I don't care. XD
*points to icon* This is how I feel about Telstra. FUCK YOU PEOPLE. *ahem*
