I have a statistic in my book about how many mobile phones were dropped down toilets. It is, in Britain, supposedly 850.000 or so every year. I included this, despite being somewhat dubious. But having just talked to a customer service person at 02, I have changed my mind. He says he gets several calls a week about mobiles going down the toilet. “You put it in your back pocket, pull your trousers down and there it goes.” Thank you for that information, Carl from 02, as well as cutting my bill by £20.
