Re: You get what you pay for

My aging mum called me a couple of years ago in a right panic. Somebody had cloned her card and was spending her money every month. When I eventually got a word in I asked where these payments were going. She said to Apple and I relaxed a bit knowing what it was.She confirmed it was a small amount and I gave her the explanation. It was the payment for her iCloud storage for her photographs etc. I told her not to cancel the card or that service if she wanted to keep access to all the files.

Then during the first lockdown she complained that there wasn't enough storage on her newish iPhone. It cost the best part of a grand if bought Sim Free. She had to inform her insurers she had one and even then it had some hideous excess before they'd even think about paying out. She'd seen my phone when I'd put in a new SD card and doubled the memory. "Why can't mine do that?"
