Twice In 2 Months I Lost Money

I have the habit of sometimes taking it easy, casually or stay lazy and in the morning these things at its peak. And that's what lost me money twice in 2 months and I need to do something so it won't happen the 3rd time and ever again. I like to reload my mobile with Talk time and both data and calls unlimited so the pack got expired yesterday and I didn't noticed any of the alerts sent by the provider and in the morning used Internet like that where close to 2 dollars were deducted like that and I realized after an hour so it wasn't a good start to the day. Have you ever lost money like that unknowingly?

Once I missed paying my apartment maintenance bill on time and it was overdue by two days. I had to pay a fine of 1000 Rs for two days. Now I have set reminders for all payments to be done on time.

I once lost my wallet which contained a little money, ID card, driver's license, ATM card, and the letter of my vehicle owner.

I have in the past. I don’t anymore unless I forget to say something to my husband or him to me. This is also why I try to keep money sitting in my PayPal I cause I need it for something or in my digit account. I’ve gotten in my husband about not touching certain money so that we don’t lose it. He is doing better.

I have the cell phone taken out of my checking account. I never see the bill. It is the same every month. Unlimited for a good price.

I am so sorry, it surely can happen if you do not have Internet unlimited.

@LadyDuck Yes I reloaded for 28 days only so they deducted money in my mobile account when I accessed internet without the pack

Sometimes yes. Some networks here are thieves. But it is a lesson learned for you so maybe next time you have to be extra careful.

I think they should have sent me a message today that pack is expired or don't let me use it because it was very expensive but yeah they are thieves
