Boy Racks Up $21,917 Cell Phone Bill


When Ted Estarija of Hayward, Calif., added his 13-year-old son to his Verizon account, he thought it would cost him an additional $50 a month. He had the phone company restrict his son's calls and texts.

But he forgot about downloads.

The boy downloaded about 1.4 million kilobytes of data and the bill was $21,917!

(His plan didn't cover data usage, so he was charged by the megabyte.)

Lucky for Ted, Verizon credited his account for the entire amount.
