And, the fact that Telecom don't seem to be charging for phonecalls from 027 moblies tonight. I have a 3c credit, but was able to make several calls. Similar stories from others.

360019 2005-05-31 10:06:00 No, It's telecoms fault, the worst that they can do is charge you the money when you top up. ILikeLinux (1669)

360021 2005-05-31 10:18:00 no lol im sure they will get over it! :D Codex (3761)
360022 2005-05-31 12:24:00 Yes it is.

It is just as wrong as Telecom holding a near monopoly on internet access, and as a consequence have force NZers to pay exorbitant prices and suffer bullsh*t service for years. So I have no sympathy for Telecom on the matter, but it is still wrong.

Anyway, I am sure Telecom will find a way to bill you regardless. Unless you know for sure, don't follow rumours in case Telecom whacks you with a big bill, or cap you for the whole of the next cycle...

360023 2005-05-31 12:33:00 My morals say: yes its wrong, stealing is stealing
My gut says: its telecom, nobody will find out
The human within says: If you can, go for it!

For this reason, Im not voting ;)

So if you thought you would never get caught, and many criminals never get caught, it is alright to commit rape, murder etc? Maybe you were too hasty with the above comment?

360026 2005-05-31 13:05:00 Heh I always take the time to steal from Telecom - a faceless multi-national who believe that competition means giving away phone credits to the people who read their rant sheets included with bills. *

They will never find <NO CARRIER>



* I'm kidding.
