Did anyone else see this?

News story about a girl who received a 300 page bill from at&t. She sent 35000 text messages! What did she expect?

Link to the story http://danmobile.blogspot.com/2007/08/justine -ezarik-and-her-300-page-bill.html

WOW now that's a bill if I've ever seen one! But i think on AT&T's part.. once your bill reaches 300 some pages.. Instead of printing the damn thing out and wasting half an ink cartage and 7 trees let alone the cost of postage they should just send you the simple invoice and give you an option to go online and download the 3000000 MB. pdf file of your bill. Obviously there is paperless billing but I think that for the people who don't use it..this would be a good option. Personally i think they should completely do away with paper-in mail billing. it's such a waste. And for most of us our bills are pretty much the same every month and are on auto-pay. And really if there is anything suspicious abut the price of your bill it would be as simpl...

With four lines on a FamilyShare Plan my monthly phone bill would average 140 pages. Paperless billing is so much more sensible.

Paperless should be mandatory really. Or summary statements of maybe 3 pages if that. And don't even get me started on checks... 😁

Personally, I prefer ALL paperless. I no longer mail checks, all my statements from everyone come by email. There's WAY to many theives to intercept the paper & do who knows what to your finances!

Isn't that a privacy issue?

I saw the video on yahoo's home page about that. There is no point to it she isn't trying to prove anything the only reason she got on their is because she is hot.

yea i think the point of her video foremost was shock value *hey look my bill came in a box that a bum could call home!*
Second to spread awareness of paperless billing
And how much paper truly is wasted by att bills..any bill for that matter.

my question is..who the hell was she texting 35000 times! I mean I'm a heavy texter also but i never exceed 900.

I've popped off 6500 in a month, and I really never put my phone down... I have no idea how the hell anyone could pull down 35000. I think apple should hire her and give lessons on how to use that god forsaken iphone touchscreen.

And as far as a 300 page bill... jesus. I've never gotten mine over 90. I wonder if AT&T charged her postage on her next bill 👀

What a bunch of shameless self promotion.

Her tag line on the video is 'use e-bill. save a forest'... Ok, Use it.. Sign up already.

what did she expect? I dunno a one page bill that sums it up. 2 voice min 35000 texts. Why would they send a bill that cost more to send it then her bill was?
