Talkmobile charged me 85£?

Hi guys. My contract with talkmobile is £7.50 per month. Surprisingly my last month bill was a whooping £85+... I called them to ask how this happened. All they tell me is that you have been browsing internet on your phone...I have 500MB allowance, how did it go to £85? Can any internet guru here tell me how is this possible? I did listen to radio one day. The guy said that you might have left the app open. But even if it was open, how can the bill go up more than 20 times?

They do not want to help my by putting this overcharge off as one time compliment...neither they are willing to reduce the bill by half...such a silly company...any advice what I can do?

Whats going to happen if I leave them? And not pay them anything at all as I believe they have cheated -.-

    500mb is nothing these days.

    If you leave they will pass your debt onto a debt collection agency who will hassle you for it as you do appear to actually owe it.

    Pay up, learn from your mistake, move on.

    Although if you tell them you cant afford it they can, at their discretion, arrange a monthly payment until its payed off.

    with only 500 mb, you should never listen to the radio on your phone.
