Inclusive WAP?

Options

I am due for an upgrade soon and wondered if there are any of the mobile phone companies that include free WAP in contracts? I am probably looking straight at the stuff but cant find them really. I am after a contract that preferably includes them or can add on cheaply!

  • Don't know anything about contracts but O2 PAYG give 1MB of GPRS WAP free with their free allowances as long as you keep topping up with minimum £10 each month. To access WAP via dial up is 10p a minute.
  • I would also be interested in an answer to this question. I'm on Vodafone at the moment and they charge maximum one pound daily for browsing (15mb cap, but more than enough for me as my Nokia 6300 doesn't do 3g). They only have one add on pack which is 7.50 a month for up to 120mb of browsing. I like to do a bit of light browsing now and then, but it can build up a fair bit over the month (my current WAP charges are 10GBP for the month with ten days to go!) however haven't decided whether signing up to 7.50 a month is good value or not--they don't do add ons for any cheaper than this and I would never, ever be able to use 120mb a month.

    Any one know how the other networks work?

    im on orange at the moment and have the unlimited evenings and weekends package add on which is £5, ideally I would prefer it to be inclusive, I use about 28-30mb per month roughly (surfing MSE!)

    Log into your account on-line here and you will see how to add bundles e.g. 30Mb / mth for £8.

    yeah, at the moment I have a £5 bundle added on but was hoping they might have a bundle that included so much for about the price I am paying for line rental at the moment

  • Looks like Orange has the best deal for light users.

    T-mobile offers £1 daily (unlimited), £2.50 for five days unlimited or £7.50 for one month unlimited (like voda)

    O2 has data bolt ons for £7.50 one month unlimited. £30 unlimited monthly with data card.

    Voda has £7.50 addon for one month.

    Can't find any info for three--any one any ideas?
