ok so apparently i hit my maxis credit limit again. which to me is quite impossible considering that I just dumped 200 bucks in there not two weeks ago. Which means that I charged 200 bucks to my account in 2 weeks? That's impossible, i've been consciously NOT calling people as much as possible and sticking to SMS. ok fine so there's a couple of Kb or Megs of wap charges (thanks to my pda), but according to my data counter and calculations that should only be about 10 or 15 bucks.

and there's no way i sent 600 smses over the past 2 weeks. ok so i made up the 600 ... sounds about right though assuming worst case to non-maxis lines at 20c per sms, 600 smses = RM120.

but of course the lovely people at Maxis customer service are kind enough to inform me that there's no way to review itemized call charges before the next statement. so i just gotta suck it up and pay something to get my line reactivated.

at least they were nice about it. i guess its not the customer rep's fault anyway .. its maxis for not implementing an on-demand usage view feature. i mean how hard can it be? all the charges are in there anyway in some database, just write a stupid query that'll look up all charges from the last statement until today, dump it to a HTML page. whats more or less how they'd have to generate statements at the end of the month anyway. except for the HTML part

unless that data is sitting somewhere in some remote server somewhere which just is not accessible in any way from a web frontend. which seems kinda silly.

the reason I ask is because I remember AT&T not having the same feature either.

anyway I am broke. just paid my portion of the condo deposit. so i calculated after my credit card payment checks clear i'm gonna be down to three digits. well ok 5 if you count cents. and its another 2 weeks till payday. 2 weeks of cheap lunches, locking myself at home, and avoiding CD and/or DVD stalls at all costs.

oh the pain. sure, "its an investment" you say. "pain now, gain later" you say. well, true. but what do i do about the pain now?

L asked me out for valentines. apparently her *darrling* bf is working then (seems kinda fishy-odd to me actually). no idea what we're gonna do. I actually wanna go to the movies, i havent had time for cinema in ages .. but she watches all the new movies in advance thanks to her movie review job. i'm probably too poor for dinner too haha.
