My stepdad was so mad and made me pay it back. I didn't understand why he made such a big deal out of it, I had a job. mrbee on "Did you ever run up a huge phone bill when you were younger?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-ever-run-up-a-huge-phone-bill-when-you-were-younger#post-387974 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 22:23:52 +0000 mrbee 387974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sweetchic: My mom once didn't talk to me for one year!

We got an unlimited plan the following month. mrbee on "Did you ever run up a huge phone bill when you were younger?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-ever-run-up-a-huge-phone-bill-when-you-were-younger#post-387921 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 22:06:08 +0000 mrbee 387921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sweetchic: OMG let's trade parents.

I think when it first came out, I rang up a bill over $1K!! My parents were FUUUURIOUS (putting it mildly).. Also, Sr year, I got a boyfriend and who lived in a different area code, but still within the Chicago suburbs. I didn't realize different area code = expensive phone call. I managed to call the phone company and change our phone plan, and they reversed those charges on that particular incident. PHEW.
