Recently I was in Mexico and I was using mthe phone in airplane mode as a camera,.
I thought that the airplane mode would protect me from unwanted charges but in anout 2 hours time I was charged over $500 in roaming charges for data transfer. I was just taking pictures and not transfering data. I had been doing this for almost 6 weeks and this is the first time that this happened. Verizon suggested that I suspend service for the phone when I travel abroad and I would still be able to use it as a camera. Verizon also gave me a 25% discount on the bill but I am still stuck with over $400 of roaming charges. I am quite upset that Verizon cannot tell me what data was transferred or to what site or application. Has anyone else had a similar experience, and how was it resolved?
