I don't work neither atm which is depressing but it's not the point the web browser on the N80 can do some damage to your bill I only loaded the 02 homepage 3x this is what im horrified at

Damn, I put £10 on my phone last month, got my 300 free texts, used 150 of them...spent £2 on calls...still got £8 left and my remaining texts were taken off.
So I spent £2 this month
£50, jeesus

@MissUK
It's not the N80's Browser but it's 02's and there rip off Data charges that are the problem. If you were with T-Mobile it would of cost you a maximum of £7.50 for 1GB and as you like to point out with 3 even less @£5.
I know it's bit like closing the stable door after the horse has bolted but i have advised you how to make sure you don't connect for any Data unless you give it permission to use a certain access point or to set it to only use WiFi. I would advise implementing those actions to guarantee it doesn't happen again and if you intend to use Data without WiFi changing Networks as soon as you can would also be a great idea.
It may also be worth calling 02 assuming it doesn't cost any money to do so and complaining about their over the top Data charges and try claiming you thought you were only using WiFi as you may wangle a discount on the charges if you use your very nice and sweet voice. I doubt they will wipe them completely but you may get a reduction if your lucky.

Stop playing with your phone and look for a job. Then you can afford to own it.
