Yep guys I know it sounds crazy.

My brother bought an LG Cookie recently and got a text from Vodafone that his calling credit was low. Knowing that he's got a bit on it he checked and he was down to about 3p.

He's looked into his call log on the phone and there are a load of calls to numbers like 118500 which were made when he was in bed with the phone on the table, when he's been driving and the phone's in his backpack, etc. All of this with the phonelock on and it's a touchscreen that takes him a while to unlock when he's trying to. There were 8 calls made in 1 minute and as I say with his touchscreen it would take him nearly a minute to dial it once, let alone 8 times.

Anyone else had anything like this happen to them ???

Twice similar things i know of:

2001 me and my nephew Matt were sitting in our transit van having lunch when his mum (my sis) rang my mobile and said "tell matt to hang up, his phone is ringing the house, we can hear you talking"
Mat pulled his phone out and there was no indication of a call being made, it just said Vodafone on the screen as normal. He had to switch it off to end the 'call' ... Very wierd.

So, never say anything dodgy when in range of a phone microphone, especially nowadays with blutooth.

2008 My mum got a new t mobile pay as you go sim for her unlocked 3 phone, a week or so later the credit had been drained (about 5 quid i think) by lots of internet connections, some during the night, we rang and barred internet access and it stopped. I blamed it perhaps because the phone still had 3 firmware in it.

Just looked up Matt's phone, it was a nokia 3310.

I think Nokia's 'connecting people' theme got a bit carried away ha, ha
