 There was me and my hubby.  We have a lot of friends who may or may not have 
 made the calls when visiting, but noone fessed up.  Since there was no way 
 to PROVE it wasn't us, there really isnt much of a choice.  We can all talk 
 really big about what we would or would not do in a situation until we are 
 faced with it.  Personally after months of arguing and being berated by the 
 assholes at Telus, I picked my battle and how to fight it.  I didn't ask to 
 be called a dildohead (wow, what a wonderful command of the english language 
 to come up with an insult like that, by the way, I wont sleep for months 
 from THAT one...), I simply wanted to explain that if Telus wont listen for 
 $5000.00 in charges, that GOOD LUCK on the $50.00 charges.
