SUMMARY：
“恐怖”的話費單
?
CONTENT：
He can go days without using his mobile phone and admits that he isn't much of a talker.
So imagine Robert Shadwick's shock when he received a mobile bill for ￡1,046 – as his operator insisted he had been chatting on a single call for 43 hours straight.
Mobile phone company EE blocked the 65-year-old from using his phone and even tried to take the money from his bank account by direct debit.
The problem was caused by a call he made with his EE phone to mobile operator 3 on May 10.
Mr Shadwick was checking when the contract on his second phone expired and the call lasted about ten minutes. Ironically, if he had used his 3 phone to make the call it would have been free.

參考譯文1：
如果一個人沒有手機也能安然度過幾天，那么他就一定是沉默寡言的。
所以想象一下當接線員告知羅伯特·沙德維克他一個電話打了43小時，話費為1046元時，他有多么驚訝。
EE移動電話公司日前限制了以為65歲老人的通話權限，甚至試圖使用直接借機從他的賬戶里扣除話費。
這一問題起始于5月10日他使用手機咨詢移動服務商3號臺。
沙德維克先生想知道他的第二個手機號的合同何時終止，通話持續(xù)了10分鐘。而極其諷刺的是，如果他用第三個手機號撥打，是完全免費的。
