We also have pooled minutes...but they insist that we review and pay for any non-business calls. This way the policy is consistent - they don't have to worry about if we go over the pooled minutes or not.

Have the employee sign next to each line item charge that they are responsible for, as well as the violation of terms paper. Give them a copy, and keep the original in their file. If it becomes a continual problem for these employees, you'll be able to shit can them with a record of their violations so they've got almost no recourse.

If you can already trace the charges to a specific person then you are way ahead of the game. All you need is the policy which is rolled out to and signed by everyone who has a corporate phone.
The generalities of the policy are that a) the phones are for acceptable business use only, b) any charges associated with personal usage will be billed back to the employee, c) continued abuse or inappropriate usage of corporate phones may also result in further disciplinary action, including termination. This is in a large part why many company's won't provide corporate phones. The hassle of having to have one person sit and deal with all of the administration is too much. The other option is to have your carrier bill the individuals and then have them submit expense vouchers for the appropriate business usage.

Email is easy. Well, too easy to scan over and delete - for THEM. You need to make it something they can't ignore.

When I was working, I had a Nextel from my employer. If I went over the alloted minutes, it was deducted from my check., that was until I went into management. Then it was a free for all.

I say blunt force trauma to the head.
Write something like this. Company cell phone are provided so that you can conveniently conduct business in AND out of the office. The cell phones are not for personal business and if abuse of cell phones continue, you will be reprimanded in a manner that management sees fit which includes but is not limited to, paying for personal phone calls or services, loss of cell phone usage, and or termination. |

My company allows personal business on our phone, it's the price they pay for making me carry around their phone and being available all day long. But the stupid add-on I would have no problem being told to not use them, and if I did I would have to pay for them.
But I think you should send your original post out, tell them they'll have to pay for it out of their pocket by putting money in a timeout jar, and that you're going to send an email to their boss every time they screwup. Their bosses are going to get tired with the stupid emails, and will kick their asses for you. The only way to modify bad behavior is to make said behavior painful, We all seem to learn faster when it hurts. |

Let the employees know about the deceptive offers and how to avoid them. If you're threatening to fire people over a $2 phone charge, I think you have bigger problems. Cost of doing business.

I don't think the problem is 1 $2 phone call. It sounds like there are several.
