Employees will suffer[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#126)

I am the CEO of a public corporation - it has been brought to my attention that one employee has charges totalling $100 per month from Dada Mobile/Mblox (and a couple of similar companies)on a mobile phone owned not by him but by the corporation (and ultimately the taxpayers). So obviously Dada/Mblox do not care who owns the phones that they count as "subscribers", and have no proper systems for checking whether the transactions are authorised. Unfortunately for the employee concerned, state laws here require me to report this matter to the Corruption and Crime Commission. The employee concerned will probably lose his job, and may well face prosecution (that will not be my decision). I'd like to know what Dada/Mblox have to say about that . . .
