My son disabled GPRS and only connects via home wi fi.

He just received a £35.00 bill for data download

O2 cannot or will not tell him if its bypassing wi fi to use GPRS without a warning,
He returned it to the shop they said think it logs download amount on the phone and report back to O2 to charge.

O2 did not deny this, just said they would look into it.

Nice to save.
