Incase you dont know, wap/gprs is free on orange UK (payg) till 31st of august!!
ok, incase you dont get that;
ORANGE PAYG CUTOMERS IN THE UK HAVE FREE WAP/GPRS TILL THE 31ST OF AUGUST
not only are orange giving something away(very very rare) they are giving it away for over 2 months. make the most of it everyone, I phoned ornage to make sure gprs is free as well and it is, however there is a 100mb download limit over a month, but if anyone downloads that much on wap they really need to get out more.
terms are on orange website (somewhere, it took me ages to find em) [addsig]

I knew the Wap was free but i didnt release gprs as well. I disagree that orange never give things free what bout the 10 text messages a day offer they did 3 years ago for example. And outhere before they introduced the yearly charge?

I too was aware of wap being free (making use of it right now:-)) I Was not aware of gprs being free as well. Overall i am fairly happy with oranges services though you have to pay to listen to voicemail.

WAP is free on PAYG and Pay Monthly and is only free using GPRS. A little known fact is that email access is also free (using GPRS). You may have to be a little more "pushy" on this one and most of the Orange Customer Services Reps dont know about it. But it can be found on the web site here

http://www.orange.co.uk/mobileemail/personal/

Both of these are limited time offers.

enjoy

@MeG,The GPRS settings for PAYG are different to Contract GPRS,Dial-up is probly the same. Ring Orange to get the right settings sent to your phone,hope this helps you out :-)
