international roaming fees!

Hello,
i just came back from Cuba and was charged 130$ in roaming fees from Fido for only 4 MO of data! Although i had turned off my data plan, it seems my 3 year old may have turned it on accidently when we were there. Anyways, I called Fido and they aren't willing to budge even though i assured them that at no point did i ever use my phone to acces the internet.
I was wondering if the service provider has the duty to advertise the roaming costs for each country on their website, because they do not.
Anyone else have the same experience?

Surely a UK website is the best place to ask about the duties of Canadian (US?) providers...billybeaver wrote: »...I was wondering if the service provider has the duty to advertise the roaming costs for each country on their website, because they do not....
