02 Web Searching, how much? Quickly please :)

Kimberley

At the moment i'm in the libruary, my computer is knackered and want to know how much 02 would charge me if i serf the web on my phone.

My daughter wants to use MSN and i want to check my emails mostly. Do they charge per page or per chat?

So roughly how much would i be charged if i were on the web via my phone for say half an hour?

Please reply quickly, i only have a short time on here

It means that there's no way of us telling you how much it'll cost you I'm afraid. O2 charge by the volume of data you use - so if you look at a website with lots of big pictures on it it'll cost a lot more than looking at a text only website. If you have no data bolt-on O2 will charge the earth per megabite you look at - summat like £3 per MB. If you plan to use the internet regularly then a bolt-on will make it a bit cheaper. Another way to make it cheaper is to use opera mini to do your browsing. It compresses the data on their servers before sending it to your phone, making the amount you download smaller. It's free to get and also makes surfing amuch better experience on a mobile!! Whatever way you look at the net on your mobile, turning off the pictures in the settings will make it cheaper.
