Carrie at Money Saving Methods had an interesting article about a new phone bill scam known as “CRAMMING”. This is where anything can be charged to your phone! This made me check more carefully this month and noticed a recurring charge of $2.99 that I did not make! I called them immediately and AT&T credited my account quickly and without hassle. (surprisingly…guess there’s a first time for everything!) This is a bill that my husband typically pays on his phone for convenience. Plus, we receive these bills electronically, making it easy to forget to check it each month. From now on, I will be sure to make a point to read everything before I pay it!

That is such good policy… I know I dont do it enough; but witout fail the times I check there is always something I dont recognize. I need to do it more!
Have a great week!
