i've been with them for over 2 years and still haven't been charged for any gprs usage. I've got an n70 now and was thinking of having my account 3g enabled if it's possible but if the free gprs continues I think i'll hold out. Someone told me that o2 have started charging for gprs now. Is 3g worth it for browsing the web on a mobile? I don't know if i've posted this in the right place as i'm on my phone now.

I was told via text message from O2 that they would start charging me for GPRS usage from 1st May - I'm still getting it free though!

Same here, though I won't hold my breath till I've had my latest bill just in case! I've been laying off the gprs a bit just in case!

lol you would be why i couldn't get that username then! and yeah its tom.
the people who get free gprs, does your monthly usage of a 1MB go down at all or not as mine doesn't.
