My son, 5, racked up a £600 credit card bill on ice cream while playing on my phone – the receipt is massive
A FIVE-YEAR-OLD boy racked up a whopping £600 bill after ordering ice cream on his unsuspecting dad’s phone
Christian King, from Sydney, Australia, ended up buying tubs of his favourite treat via UberEats.
Dad Kris had given Christian his phone to keep him distracted while his sister’s touch football match was underway.
But the little lad then selected tubs of his favourite ice cream as well as seven boxes of cakes, jars of chocolate spread and bottles of milk, reports the .
Kris said Christian had warned him he had “something on the way”, but he did not believe him — that is until an UberEats delivery driver called his wife.
He said: “We almost had a bloody heart attack.
“I flicked through the screen about 30 times. That’s how long the order was, it was like 99 cakes.”
“He actually told me he ordered a birthday cake for himself, and I didn’t even believe it."

Kris added: “I had steam coming out of my ears, first of all, screaming his name down the street. He ran to his room before I told him so.”
The epic order was delivered to Newtown Fire Station where King works as a firefighter and it was the place where he last made an order.
His colleagues on duty accepted the order and were forced to remove everything they had in the fridge to fit it all in.
UberEats agreed to refund the order when King and his wife explained what had happened.
