Just because the wrong hand off wifi on his smartphone that guy in the story below had to pay mobile data bill up to 700 USD (about 16 million). A price is too expensive for a moment of "wild".

Specifically, a guy recently shared on Reddit the bill with the fee for Verizon network up to 700 USD. He explained that, after switching from an iPhone 6s to a new Samsung Galaxy S9, he missed the wrong wifi on this device. And he used 46GB of mobile data in the month without knowing it.

When using the iPhone, if the user exceeds its capacity limit, he will receive a notice of overcharging. But with his new phone, it wasn't until 8 days before the bill expired that he received the message. So he did not read the content carefully but still used it carefree. Therefore, when he received the bill exceeding the amount of up to 700USD, he was really scared.

But luckily for this guy, after posting on the Reddit forum, Verizon exempted all of this overcharging fee and agreed to let him register for Big Red, its unlimited storage package.

The guy's story is a lesson for those who need to use a lot of data on smartphones, so register a data plan with unlimited capacity. If not, please always keep your wifi icon connected. An unintentional situation makes you pay a cheap price at all.
