A South Florida woman got a shock when she opened a recent cell phone bill: she owed $201,000. 一位南福罗里达州女性收到近期话费账单时震惊了：她欠电信公司20万零1千美元。 It was no mistake. 这不是话费公司搞错了。 Celina Aarons has her two deaf-mute brothers on her plan. They communicate by texting and use their phones to watch videos. Normally, that's not a problem. Aarons has the appropriate data plan and her bill is about $175. 欠下如此高额话费不是Celina Aarons一个人干的，还有她的两个聋哑人兄弟。他们用短信联系，并且用他们的电话看视频、一般来说，这也不是什么大问题。所以Aarons的正常话费应该是175美元。 But her brothers spent two weeks in Canada and Aarons never changed to an international plan. Her brothers sent over 2,000 texts and also downloaded videos, sometimes racking up $2,000 in data charges. 但是她的兄弟们在加拿大待了两星期却没有换国际套餐。她的兄弟们发了2000多条短信，还下了视频，所以这部分的通讯费达到了2千美元。 When Aarons read the bill -- all 43 pages of it -- she realized she owed $201,005.44. 当Aarons看到账单——整整43页的账单——她发现自己欠了20万1千零5块44美分。 "I was freaking out," Aarons told the news station WSVN. "I was shaking, crying, I couldn't even talk that much on the phone. I was like my life is over!" |
