Cell Phone Dilemma!


Question Posted Wednesday October 4 2006, 9:27 pm

Ok so this is about cell phones, not computers, but I am freaking out. I have a Cingular account for my phone service. I don't have a Media Net plan, but Media net is on my phone as pay-as-you-go. I'm not really supposed to go on it at all, but i by accidently downloaded a music ring tone! Now i was only on Media net for about 60 seconds, but after i logged off it was like 2569 bytes transferred. I read somewhere that each kilobyte was $.01. Does this mean im paying 25 dollars for 60 secdonds on media net?!?! if any one knows anything about this, please answer because i am dead if i owe 25 dollars. THANKS!

You said "I read somewhere that each kilobyte was $.01" and "2569 bytes transferred".

That's 2569/1024 = 2.5087890625 kilobytes, therefore you owe $2.5, not $25. (1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes)

No.. i'm pretty sure it'll only be.. $2.00 or somthing like that. But if you got a ringtone it will add that to it as well. I'm not sure exactly how much it will cost you but it shouldn't be that much.
