    You may want to explain more.

    Are you getting credit used on a Pay as You Go system, Money being used on an iTunes account or odd entries on your bills.

    I suspect you mean PAYG but you need to give more information to go on.

    Oh sorry. Yes it's pay as you go. I do have a certain amount of free Internet access every month. At one time the only time money was used was if I phoned someone which I rarely do on this phone and texts. I think I must have turned something on that is now using my money up but don't know what.

    Best guess is you have an app set to autoupdate, or mail is being checked frequently and that's using up your data.

    How much data do you get, and what apps do you have on the phone. Can you remember it starting to happen at any particular time after installing an application?

    Hi I think I've sorted it now. I finally managed to phone up and it was my voicemail. My phone says EE , my SIM cards a tmobile and I top up with orange no wonder I'm confused lol
