It states :
"* From 1st February 2004, when you use O2 Active, you will be charged at a rate of £2.35 per megabyte. On average a page of information in O2 Active is 10 kilobytes depending on the amount of graphics and text. So every time you use O2 Active and download a page you are only charged for the amount of data you use, typically 2.3p per page. Plus if you use O2 Active a lot, from the 1st February 2004, you will be able to purchase an O2 Active Bolt On giving you almost unlimited usage of up to 5MB for just £4 a month. Usage over this 5MB limit will be charged at the standard pay as you use rate."

I think this is only applicable to 'normal' O2 sims. This thread is referring to O2 'online' sims (formerly know as Genie). These give 300 free texts and 300mins free WAP per month as long as you spend £10 or more per month or credit.
It is this that seems to have unlimitted free GPRS and has done for some time. I'd be surprised if this changed!
(it is also possible to change the 300 texts to 3other options)
"MMS25"- 200txt + 25MMS
"MMS50"- 100txt + 50MMS
"MMS75"- 0txt + 75MMS
I use MMS25. need to visit an O2 shop & get them to ring Genie to get these activated

ye in australia we have prepaid wich is pretty much the same thing except u just get $25 (or watever amount you put on it) of calls/wap/sms.. but wen u send an sms it takes 2 days to charge it to deduct the 25cents from your credit, so wen u have 30cents or watever left u just sms nonstop for 2 days and all it costs is 30cents.. lol

dazbradbury is wrong.
O2 don't use your phone timers to judge when you need to top up.

i agree. it would certainly seem unlikely that your phones settings would be visible to your network provider. ...

not sure if this is whats happening but its possible. ive found that if i top up by twenty pounds in one go or ten pounds twice within my 30 day period then my free txt will start again next month without actually having to top up within that month itself. does that make sense to anyone cus it dont to me lol
