Anyone know how much 3G is on o2 ATM?
I know that video calling is included in the monthly allowance, but what about browsing?

No, the phone is 3G, but is not on a 3G contract, you can still use the services, but they are charged at different prices. I was wondering whether or not anyone has had any experience of the pricing of internet browsing on an XDA or similar PDA or phone?

I know the calling is inclusive (see earlier post) its just the browsing..

Thanks in advance

Ring em up and say you want to cancel your contract, they'll then put you through to another department who try to persuade you to stay. They'll ask you the usual stuff like what other deals have you seen make you want to leave. I did just this a month ago and mentioned a "3" deal for a 3G contract with around 500 any time x-network minutes and 100 texts which was around £25/month at the time, and they said they could beat that and give it to me for £20 a month on a 12 month contract!
The only problem is that I want the Nokia N70 and theyve had problems with them so delayed the release until this week. I called them on Monday morning and they said they still werent in stock and to call back today - I did this and they said they had them in Monday afternoon and are now out of stock!!

Im temped to go to another network but nobody else apart possibly from 3 can get close to that contract deal, and Ive never heard a good word about 3 so wouldnt go there.

TBH we did that last time, wanted to cancel the contract and go payandgo. They persuaded us to stay by offering a free contract for a year.

I just find it odd that there are no pricing plans up anywhere, which leads me to believe their price plans for 3G are nothing to shout about, if you know what i mean!
