Phone bill fiasco...

I don't know if this is included under utilities but here we go.

DH and I got cell phones 2 years ago because our building wouldnt support a landline (really old wiring). When we signed up, our bills came to around $100 a month for two phones. We thought that was decent. Fast forward 2 years. Our bill has skyrocketted to $200 a month with no real changes in usage. But the suspicious part is that this is the first month its been over $200 and conveniently, the company is having problems printing the invoices and we haven't recieved our bill, so I can't verify the calls that were made etc...

I find it infuriating that they can keep upping the bill. It went from 100, to 130 to 160 and now 200. We're cancelling as soon as we move.

its funny, i just printed out our landline/dsl bill and it went from a steady $30 to $64! its all taxes and surchages too. we dont even use the landline, we only have it because we have to in order to have the dsl. its ridiculous. ive spent the last twenty minutes on hold with the phone company to get this straightened out because im not ready to accept that taxes and other state fees have made my bill rise that much.
