Story: Orange roaming rates claim another victim
Posted by: Anonymous (Tuesday 14 February 2006, 10:50 AM)
Had the same experience with O2 - bill for £305 for downloading personal mail (no attachments, 100K maximum) over a three day period in Ireland, seemingly adding up to 70mb over three days.. where does that go on an XDA IIS ? To add insult to injury, I was cut off by O2's Finance Department with no prior warning while abroad, because of 'excessive usage' and left adrift for three days. I find this absolutely outrageous - whatever the technical ins and outs, O2 are charging me £300-odd for what ? A handful of emails ? It's borderline criminal.
And another thing - is there any way of turning GPRS off and keeping GSM on on an XDA ? If not it's very hard to avoid data transfers..
