You can't hide from the bill, so my recommendation is to clean up your act and pray your boyfriend still likes you.

Cant be done, and even if you hide the paper bill it can still be scene on line. Valentines day is coming, suck up to him and he should forgive you LOL its not that guys...our parents are having trouble with each other. I need his number out of my phone bill and mine out of his. Is there REALLY no way?! > LOL its not that guys...our parents are having trouble with each other. > I need his number out of my phone bill and mine out of his. Is there > REALLY no way?! No, there's not. Now, go tell the parents to play nice or you'll send them to their rooms without supper.

I'd be more concerned about your parents reading your mail. Or send yer 'rents to Drama Queens Anonymous > LOL its not that guys...our parents are having trouble with each other. > I need his number out of my phone bill and mine out of his. Is there > REALLY no way?! There are workarounds. 1: if you have your own landline at home, you could forward calls to your boyfriend. Many landline phones can be set up for "Selective Call Forwarding," so whenever YOUR cell phone calls the number, it gets forwarded to the boyfriend, while other incoming calls ring on the landline as per normal. Of course, there are monthly charges for this service, but it is only a couple of dollars. Your cell bill will show that you called your landline number--it will not show that your landline forwarded the call to another location. 2: You can talk to anyone for free using your computer (you have to be at home or have wireless internet access to do this). Microsoft Messenger is one free program that you can use to do this--but you both have to be at your computers and have Internet access, in order to make the connection. 3: You could get another cell phone, billed separately so your parents can't get to see your calls. Again, that costs money. 4: You might find it less frustrating to trade in your boyfriend for another model . . . :-) >>LOL its not that guys...our parents are having trouble with each other. >>I need his number out of my phone bill and mine out of his.

But the point of doing any of this would be predicated on allowing the parental units to continue their inappropriate behavior, or whatever it is that makes their kids ask these sort of questions. In my world, for me to do anything that furthers someone else's inappropriate behavior is unacceptable. Naturally, the choice is theirs rather than mine.

Just be aware that this will most likely cause the calls to be billed as regular airtime. If the couple both have Cingular phones, this method will NOT allow them to have the calls billed as mobile to mobile. In addition, the caller ID info from the called party MAY still pass through to the receiving end and wind up on the bill as a received call. > 2: You can talk to anyone for free using your computer (you have to be at > home or have wireless internet access to do this).

You're correct--I was not thinking about free M2M, but rather for some way to connect without the called number appearing on the calling party's bill. > In addition, the caller ID info from the called party MAY still pass > through to the receiving end and wind up on the bill as a received call. That is certainly true. I was under the impression that the OP wanted to have no record of the dialed number to appear on HER bill. If the intention was to block the call information on BOTH bills, then my suggestion will not work. If I understood her post correctly, Mama and Poppa aren't too keen on her having contact with her boyfriend, and it is HER bill that she wants to protect. Of course, if the boyfreind calls HER, then she's going to be "SOL." >> 2: You can talk to anyone for free using your computer (you have to be at >> home or have wireless internet access to do this).
