CANADA – One woman has made an outrageous claim against a phone company!
Cell phone companies have a very simple task when you look at the big picture. They are charged with creating adequate service that allows for people to communicate with one another. Sometimes, according to one woman, they can tear people apart and be the reason why an affair is revealed.
That is the claim Gabrielle Nagy is making who is suing Rogers Wireless after her husband discovered her extramarital affair through her itemized mobile phone bill and left her. Nagy, 35, is seeking 600,000 Canadian dollars from Rogers Wireless for invasion of privacy and breach of contract, Canwest News Service reports.
Originally, Nagy maintained a Rogers cell phone account under her maiden name, while her husband enjoyed a cable TV account with Rogers. Her husband decided to add a landline and Internet service and Rogers decided to package all the services it provided the “happy” family with in one invoice. Upon receiving the first grouped invoice, her husband noticed some rather long calls to an unknown number. Shortly after, an affair was confirmed, and her husband quickly left her.
In court documents cited by Canwest, Nagy claims that she had asked the cell phone company to send her bill in her name to her home, but it was instead bundled with the couple’s television, Internet and home phone bill in her husband’s name. When her husband reached out to the unknown number, a man told him that he had recently had a three-week affair with Nagy. He left her and their children in August of 2007.
“The affair was over,” she told Canwest News Service. “The thing that really hurt me is that it all came out not through my own doing. I entrusted them with my personal information.”
Shame on Rogers Wireless for not knowing of the affair taking place. Perhaps they should add a new clause to future contracts that does not make them liable for the breakup of any marriages or the consequences of any affairs.
Roger Wireless should have asked her if they could bundled her plan, not just take it up on they on, No matter what she,s doing or not doing. She asked the cell phone company to send her bill in her name to her home. and they did something they wanted to do, Now pay for it.
Really lady? You're going to sue because your (ex)husband found out about your affair and left you? When he requested it all be rolled into one invoice? Nobody here is to blame but yourself for committing adultery and not being able to stay off your back, I'm glad he left you, I only wish he had found out earlier.
It does not matter what your moral opinion of this lady is or is not.. The simple fact is that she entrusted her service to this company and they broke her privacy. They had no right to bundle her service into his name. Disregarding her behavior how would you feel if someone took your cell phone and put it into someone else's name and gave them all the people you called during the month. Not only do they know your every call they now have controll over your line stopping you from being able to get new phones or change anything because you are no longer the account holder. Really the fact this woman was cheating is not the issue..
All I would like to say in response to this dimwitted woman is…."Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve"….YOU Ms. Nagy are totally out to lunch….your elevator does not even get out of the basement if you think you can blame someone else for your actions…I hope this lawsuit gets laughed right out the door….
Tough stuff cream puff–obviously no one ever told you that if you pay you sometime have to pay the piper.
These cell phone companies need to realize people have their personal lives which they prefer to keep secret! They have a duty to protect them!
"“The affair was over,” she told Canwest News Service."
OH! I get it! Honey, last year I had a 6 month affair, but don't worry, it's been over for 4 months!
Really sweetie? I guess, as long as it's over, I'm OK with it! What's on TV?
“The thing that really hurt me is that it all came out not through my own doing."
Well, the affair certainly was your own doing, and you're not including that in the phrase "IT ALL came out". Why not?
" I entrusted them with my personal information.”"
Isn't the last thing you should complain about be "Trust"? wow! How does she keep a straight face?
HA HA HA deal with it you cheating whore, booo hoooo, good for her hubby to up and bail.
While a cheating wife is an unsympathetic victim, the reality is, if it happened to me I'd be furiouse. Because I bet that if he wanted a seperate phone line the wireless company would have kept his bill seperate.
I wonder if instead, she had been a victim of domestic violence and her phone calls were to a safe house as she made preparations for leaving, if the author of this article might feel differently. Or perhaps the authorstill lives in the 1700's where women were chattel.
Not only is this women a cheat, she is a fool!
SHE SHOULD WIN THE CASE,HER BILL WAS IN HER MAIDEN NAME AND THEY BUNDLED THE SERVICE UNDER MARRIED NAME OR(ADDRESS)AND DID NOT CONCIDER THE LAST NAME ON THE ACCOUNTS, SHE IS THE WINNER!!
If this woman is cheating on her husband she deserves having her husband leave her; its not the phone companies fault she's a cheating whore..
Wow, the Phone company broke up her marriage? Her being a Ho had nothing to do with it. Thsi chick should live in the United States. She would probably prevail in the case.
More people not taking responsibility for their actions. Serves her right when she lost her husband and when she loses this case. The phone company didn't force her to cheat on her husband. She thought she can have her cake and eat it too.
Rogers does really funny stuff when it comes to contracts. They have wronged me on a couple of occasions and always try to extend my contract, most recently I wanted to change my text plan and suddenly my contract was extended for 3 years, which I never agreed to even when I asked if there were any changes because my texting…Realistically this woman could have made a mistake somehow else such as her husband is wondering why she is gone and decides to follow her, but really, Rogers should lose this case to set an example for them not to do anything that isn't agreed to in their contracts. For the record, if she wanted to cheat, perhaps her husband wasn't satisfying her…nothing wrong with that and none of our business;)
It was a spousal consolidation. If they are married, they have the same credit information.
When you do things like that, you do get caught one day or the other. So whether or not she sues Rogers Company, she is not going to get her husband back…!! Moral of the story- shame on you Nagy.
