It depends how you're connected, if it's via CSD it costs a **** load (the mobile equilavent of dial-up I think). Basically on O2 don't use the Internet from what I hear

26 mins costing a fiver seems a lot though, I pay £12.50 my unlimited* for 1.8Mbps connection (*not really unlimited cos there's a limitation). It's acually fater than ****ing Virgin.

i know that but what im saying is you would have to be on a helluva lot of sites to be chsrged that much </BLOCKQUOTE>

Not at all.

If I'm right, an N73 goes on the proper internet rather than on WAP. You'll be charged per megabyte of information transferred. Dunno what O2s charges are, but on Orange the standard rate if you have no specific bundle for it is about £3 per megabyte.

So if the rates are similar, you're being charged for transferring just under 2mb of data. That could easily be just one web page, if it's got much on it in the way of graphics or photos.

I love all those "unlimited*" offers. Shouldn't be allowed to print it IMO. It's either unlimited or it isn't, FFS.

Can you ask them for a breakdown of when you were "online" and what sites you visited?

A bit more detail might help you figure out if you'd gone online by accident, or whether it's just plain wrong.

isn't wap determined with the amount dowloadeded rather than time spent? if so i would have to have visited a lot of sites or downloaded a lot to warrant these amount of chrges
do you disable/turn off your bluetooth?
if not could you have been hacked?
