Guest Mark-J Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Hi guys, I set my wifes SF up the other week for MMS and I can send her picture messages fine, but tonight she tried to send me one of the kids, and it sent ok BUUUUT it charged her £1.50 therabouts for 'data usage' WTF!!!! :) Ive not set any data settings up at all on her phone, and the use data toggle is off in the settings! so how can it use data if there arnt ANY data settings :lol: So I was thinking that maybe because shes changed her phone, O2 have disabled the MMS account (i know theyve done it to me before on an old phone ages ago) and I had to text MMS or something to a number so they reactivate MMS capabilities etc, and was wondering if anyone knows the number and if it is MMS you type in etc (tried 1010 with MMS and at first said will setup MMS for me, but then said its not an iphone! (yeah I KNOW its not an iphone!!!)) You would think that nowadays as they know its not an iphone, to then just set MMS us as a standard phone! Thanks in advance. Mark.
Guest Phoenix Silver Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 call the network provider and ask
Guest Mark-J Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Yeah looks like i'll have to ring them up, was hoping to find the solution online using an sms etc, but tried 2 and neither were what was needed, so looks like i'll have to sit listening to dodgy music while more than likely in a queue hehehe... Find it disgusting though that if the MMS isnt setup, why not just return sms the sender with a message telling them its not setup etc, rather than letting it through and then charging £1.50ish for the privelege!!! The return message she got was that data services will be £1 a day!!! WE DONT HAVE DATA SETUP!!! stoopid O2!!!!

I posted a problem yesterday that a friend of mine has, where she is getting charged £1 a day for data but she don't have data set up on her sim and all the data etc settings are switched of. so if you do find a solution or way of stopping this problem, would you plz post it here so i can pass it on and maybe help my friend out as well.
