I just got my bill and the first time I've had a good look at it.. usually I just throw it somewhere unopened.
I've been charged £8 by three for Internet and My mobile is not even compatible with their Internet!!! Might give em a call later on but I don't think it'll help.
on another note... God bless student loans and Scholarships.

Don't complain!
here in Bulgaria, a MEGABYTE via GPRS costs about one pound!!! make your own calculations to see how much a gigabyte costs!
praised be the one who invented WIFI!!!

Here in Macedonia 2MB cost 1 euro. I think it's still very expensive... Hope the GRPS price will fall in the near future...

I could live with it being £6 but £26.00 is alot..
o2 charge £3 per MB there the worst network for Data in the UK as it costs so much I can leave o2 come November 23rd ive been a customer of there's for 8 years it doesn't seem there going to sort there charges out like the rest of them so im gunna get my Pac code and move over to "3" hopefully they will have that £15 deal still by then
in the meantime I don't know whether to pay off my debt installments or pay for it all now
lol

Well, i have to remind you all that use mail (for example gmail) on your phones (i use p990i). Turn off automatic GET&SEND function. I had it on and set so the phone was checking 3 of my mail accounts every minute. Practicly no cost for me when I am in homecountry (Slovenia). But when I went abroad (summer vacation), i forgot to turn it off. I didn't read one single mail nor use gprs or umts for anything else (except one wappush). Result? 300€ for 6 days of not even looking at mails. !!My mails weren't downloaded to phone (except subject and sender)!!!! So, think twice what functions you have ON when leaving abroad.

I use internet on my phone just as much as internet at home, so yes, I need internet on my phone.
had withdrawal symptons nearly this morning when t-mobile were having 3G problems but a quick call to tech support told me that if I switch the phone to GSM only then I could get a GPRS connection while these probs continued so all was saved! 3G/HSDPA was working again this afternoon so all was happy again

my advice for people who complain about data charges with O2, is either don't use it, or use it, if you have a data bolton, on your account and re-set your gprs data counter when you get your allowance, at least that way u will know what you have used, and when you are approaching your allowance or used it, then don't use the internet on your mobile, and then you won't be suffering from a bill for internet charges.
either that, or do what dogmann suggested and switch networks, but untill you can do that, just dont use the net on your phone.
