PAYG Orange UK, or do I change tariff / network

[Guest RickDawson]

I'm currently on orange UK PAYG

I think that i'm paying £4 per mb for GPRS usage

Is there any better way to have GPRS, without paying in advance for voice calls

my current usage is (per month):

- max 30 text messages

- 2 or 3 short voice calls

- large usage of GPRS data access for email & web browsing

most people I know are on orange (UK)

I can't make any sense of the information on any of the mobile network operators sites for GPRS.

Im sure that on o2 online pay as you go sim , gprs usage is free .. A few of my mates have been using it for ages . I would too but I couldnt be bothered getting my mpx200 unlocked ..

[Guest RickDawson]

Is this for web or just wap, as it shows on the page?

http://shop.o2.co.uk/cgi-bin/o2uk/jsp/tari...O2:TALKALOT:SIM

If it includes free web and email, then it will be a good deal, although calls are more expensive.

I usually spend £10 mainly on GPRS a month, and the odd texts and voice calls.

The £10 would then just go on all voice calls

I think from just looking at the page on their site, that it is only wap.

O2 said there free gprs use would end at the start of may - did this not happen?

[Guest RickDawson]

not being an o2 customer, the only thing I can see is that their site shows gprs at a cost of £0.00 per mb

anyway I was sceptical as to the sustainability of offering free gprs.

I'm still looking for better options :-k can anyone suggest any to me.

[Guest RickDawson]

I've emailed o2 and t-mobile

Their responses wern't what I was expecting... They seem to be stock answers, and direct me to their web sites (which I have already looked at...)
