I feel My privacy being violated without my consent is worth much more than $1000. Oh I had to turn down my privacy settings on explorer to type this comment on this site

I agree with Nina and Mike. We, as in the people on this site right now, need to set up a webpage with info on how to sign up for a class action lawsuit. Then someone needs to digg it and hopefully it will top page and everyone and their mother will join.

Hey Mike…
Get this: We care about the money. If thousands can do that why can’t we get thousands together and fix the problem not just handle a sympton.
By the way, if we cost any business money and time what do you think they do?
I’ll tell you so you won’t have to guess.. they raise there fees to their customers to pick up those costs..
No business will let a problem eat into their profits..dummy.
Now, I do want the money and the other money refunded that I have paid to the telcos for erroronious fees and charges. They stole that money and shoulkd have to pay it back. Again, that $500.00 to $1000.00 is chump change compared to the over charges we have all been forced to pay.
We must come together and demand our refunds and changes to our bills for future savings…

That would be a Headline Story

Who cares if you get the money…
The point is to punish them.
Harass them. Cost them money….
File suit..they’ll have to show up in court.
It doesn’t make much difference if just one
person does it. But just think if thousands did…
At the very least it would make a very interesting news story..

Let’s hope someone brings this up during the ongoing investigation, and that that a competent judge gets to spend some time thinking about it (well, let’s hope that happens if it is, in fact, a real possibility).

Based on my phone company record keeping skills (my bill is always wrong one way or another) I don’t know how accurate the records they gave really are. Wouldn’t it be great if the fed sued for getting bad info from the Telco’s?

Oh, yeah. A middle Tennessee man has already filed suit against BellSouth. Verison has also had a class-action suit filed against them. BellSouth sent (from their legal department) a demand that USA Today retract the story, claiming that it was untrue and threatning to file libel charges if the retraction was not issued. This should be an interesting next few weeks.
