accessing on-line bank from mobile phone

[Guest goldtop]

I have a blackberry and an spv 2000 but I have not managed to log-on to my on-line bank nor my on-line credit card company.

is there any monile phone available in uk which is powerful enough to allow such access.

I do a lot of travelling outside uk and like to keep an eye on my finances whilst travelling. I am loathe to access banks etc from internet cafes and it seems like overkill to carry a laptop for this purpose.

any thoughts pse???

p - tks for advice. downloaded opera mini to spv2000 on orange network and it works well. could not download same application to blackberry, on t-mobile. message on blackberry was "server error". don't understand.

again many thanks for assistance. you saved me buying yet another smartphone.

For banking use, you might want to hit the 'landscape' option and turn off 'fit to screen'.

My mda compact II does fine on my Nationwide acount, well it did until I tried to log in on my desktop with my old pass details and locked pc & ppc out. Got to re-register. My very old nokia used tgo access my nationwide account, they text settings for wap.

Geoff, mda compact II (t-mobile) 1gb sd card ok. Co-pilot sat-nav no prob :)

I downloaded opera mini to my spv m2000 and it worked well for a few days. I was able to browse web including my bank at speed.then it failed. my internet explorer also started failing to connect with web pages. I did a hard re-set and internet explorer worked well again. I loaded opera mini and my internet explorer went wrong again.

I did this 3 times with same result.

when I check opera site it seems that opera mini is not supported by the spv m2000 ( or should that be the other way ).

for the moment, I have given up on opera mini and just use internet explorer. I would welcome advice since when it worked, opera mini was excellent.

tks for this. which version,therefore, should I use on my spvm2000?

I have no problems using my SPV M2000 and the natwest online bank system, to the extent that i can transfer money and use all their features from the phone.

Paypal is another kettle of fish however, and i cannot do anything of note with the phone on that, including buying things off of ebay, which is a darned shame :)
