Story: Orange user loses battle over roaming bill

Given the terms and conditions and the prices on their web site (they were there when I was working abroad a few years ago) it was a foregone conclusion.
As to allowing him to clock up a bill of 700UKP+, well depends on what his normal bill was, but when I was working abroad a bill of over 1k per month wasn't unusual.
My girlfriend in Germany at the time used to get warnings from T-Mobile at the time when her account exceeded 2000€
Maybe users should be able to specify in the contract a warning limit, where they receive a call or SMS when they exceed their personal limit.
