I had heard that o2 pay and go customers are NOT getting full Mobile Web Access. Does anyone know if this is correct?? Please. It would explain alot to all those on o2 payg, who are experiencing problems with settings & connection.

Hi. I am on O2 P&G and my sim is new. Got it last week . GPRS is working fine for me so far. Not being charged either but that may be because its free for the first month? I,m not really sure.
First ever SE and chuffed to bits But i still love my 8890

Bit of an odd one this. You're not getting what they call 'mobile web' but in my experience this has never stopped me getting any web page I want from my smart phone. It does stop you from using any built in web client though, and for some (some seem to be able to) they can't connect via a laptop.

I-mode isn't really a replacement for web access though as it uses sites particularly chosen for the service and the screen format that a phone generally uses.
