If you are actually having your phone DIAL a connection (an actual phone number), then you are being charged by your minute usage (your whenever minutes). If you connect using GPRS (which is faster and less expensive) you will need to sign up for the TMobile unlimited data plan (I have it and it doesn't suck). Otherwise, the basic rule of thumb is if you have to actually DIAL a number on your phone to get to the internet, you are using GSM minutes.
Guest prodigio2k Posted April 22, 2005 Report Posted April 22, 2005 i have free nights and weekends , does that means i get to use the internet free at those hous,or that its just eating my minutes regardless at what time i used it.

If you are using your phone for GSM internet, then T-Mobile doesn't know the difference between data and voice calls. I suspect you are STILL paying for whatever dialup service you are dialing into from your phone. You might want to consider switching to the T-Mobile unlimited internet plan. You get GPRS coverage (which is faster then what you are using now) and you don't have to pay another internet provider for dial up access. If you attach that to your voice plan, it should only cost you $19.99 a month for UNLIMITED usage (day or night, weekday or weekend). If you have a smartphone, that is definately the way to go.
