Sean_Neale

So i've recently taken out a new contract with Vodafone £35.00 per month I get 600mins, unlimited text messages, unlimited access to e-mail and unlimited internet i got the blackberry curve 8900 (amazing phone BTW)

So what i'm wating to know is how long can i spend on the internet on sites like facebook, bbc, ebay etc without going over my allowance - i do not stream videos btw

any assistance would be greatly appreciated as i do not ant to be hito with hefty internet usage charges

I'm on the same tariff and i was told they will let you know when you go over a few times to cut this down otherwise they will start charging

how long do you spend on the internet and have you gone over yet?

It not a matter of how long your online, its the amount of data you use. How many sites you view etc.

Ive got unlimited vodafone internet and the operator told me the fair usage policy goes up to 500mb a month, although ive heard from a few people that they dont charge you even if you go over this which i find hard to believe!

I got charged roughly £250 for using something like 230MB of internet back when Vodafone had a limit of 120MB. So much for the unlimited internet i signed up for. Mis-sold via dial-a-phone so was sorted. But vodafone do charge i believe £2 per 1Mb over your allowance. It will be in your terms on your contract.

Sign up on Vodafone .com where you can see you itemised bill, it ican be up to 72 hours behind but you will be able to get a good idea how many minutes texts and Mb you are using and whether they are chargeable or come from your inclusive plan.

I have just aquired an HTC Hero on Vodafone, even with lots of playing about downloading apps, Google mail on auto sync and a few widgets working I didnt come anywhere near the limit on my first bill.

I Know not trying hard enough

spoke with Vodafone last night who advised me that the fair usage limit is 500mb however if you go over they won't automatically charge you - they will send you a letter or sms telling you off basically for exceeding their limit and if you continue to "abuse" then they wioll hit you with the charges. as i don't stream live video feeds i don't think i will get anywhere near the 500mb anyway - thanks for all of your help tho
