If you feel like you’re contributing a little too much to that pie, you may find help from a Texas start-up, Validas, and its Web site: www.MyValidas.com.

Validas has just 10 employees, and its online tool has an occasional rough edge.

Validas helps customers live up to its motto: “Fight back against your cell phone bill!”
