    Hi Guys,

    I have an o2 blackberry. I use it for email, but also browsing using the bb browser and opera mini. (I have the open.internet settings input in order to allow this and google talk).

    For months I was being charged nothing for my data use... then all of a sudden I started getting charged for data usage...

    I queried this and they said I was only being charged for internet browsing.

    Are other people being charged?

    Hi Akula,

    Internet browsing was never supposed to be included in the package but for a brief period due to a technical error it was. They left it like that for a couple of months and then notified all the users they could to advise of the change.

    Wap browsing using wap.dol.ie IS however included. You can change to this on Opera but the normal Blackberry browser cannot be changed without changing the provisioning.

    Unfortunate wording but what it means is "Internet Email" such as POP email but they were trying to simplify it I reckon. It's just a phrase that can be misinterpreted (and indeed has been).

    That phrase should be changed to "Unlimited email and WAP browsing €20", as internet isn't included, and I've never heard anybody refer to email as "internet email" in my life! Or perhaps "Unlimited BlackBerry email and WAP browsing €20". Anything except "internet email". It's very confusing.
