A disruptive break-up

I DIDN'T even call to break it off. I just upped and left, leaving my new beau to explain why I was leaving my ex.

My ex-telco, that is.

After over 10 years together - a long, monogamous relationship - I recently split up with my mobile service provider (one of the "big three"). Just when I was planning to re-contract my line for another 24 months, I noticed my latest bill was slightly more pricey than usual - even though my usage had stayed the same. After scrutinising the bill and reading some fine print, I realised what had happened.
