    See the FAQ: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=59526469&postcount=19

    Billpay
    (WAP) 2c per KB
    (ISP) €4.92 per MB (billed @ €0.0048 per KB)
    (ISP) €9.99 / 250MB monthly bundle
    (ISP) €30 / 10GB monthly (unlimited but fair usage policy of 10GB)

    That be the pricing depending on what you chose.

    So it cost the same as connecting regularly. Just wanted to check as i have almost connected a few times and wanted to make sure it wouldn't cost me a bomb!

    Just to confirm with you ... rather than picking "Meteor WAP" or "Meteor ISP" or "Meteor Streaming" etc on your phone you chose "Meteor MMS" when connecting to the web?

    To the best of my knowledge then this is the same as selecting "Meteor WAP" if it worked.

    Yeah it was the MMS one i selected but i always copped it and exited before i got a chance to connect so i'm not actually sure if it even does connect.

    Meteor don't allow Internet traffic to go through the MMS APN. I have tested it recently and was unable to access the Internet through either a handset's built in web browser or Opera mini.
