Mobileme messes up accounts

Apples Mobileme service offers email, address book and a calendar in a easy to use web application, further more iPhone users can sign up for a free trial just to see how things go and if the customer finds it useful enough to sign up for the fully paid up membership.

However, alarm bells have been ringing when a customer who signed up for the free trail had some problems. He needed to add his credit card details in order to get the free trial, but later found that is had been charged £121.

As if that was not bad enough, his account access actually gave him access to another members account, with access to emails, contact list, files and photos in fact, everything that the other user had saved on Mobileme was available.

Apple says that they have now resolved this issue and have extended the trial period for those affected by another thirty days.
