You would have at least had the option whilst the phone's ability to connect via wifi would have been unaffected.</P> Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:12:08 GMT jonsie 2013-07-09T19:12:08Z https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Android/being-billed-for-uk-browse-and-downloads/m-p/496444#M20751 <P>every day but I don't go on to internet and I don't download things - not necessary for me - but I'm being charged for wap.o2.co.uk...........also I have free wifi from my home which is where I use the phone, so can't understand why it wouldn't tap into that if it was going on internet.&nbsp; The thing is though I honestly didn't go on internet, so why and how am I being charged for all these daily downloads?&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Samsung Galaxy Ace and yes, the settings are checked. I got on to o2 yesterday and they have blocked internet access on my phone...........so that will stop charges for something I'm not using............</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>the thing is I might have wanted to go on to internet at some stage, so would have like that capability........</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>am i making sense?</P> Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:05:50 GMT https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Android/being-billed-for-uk-browse-and-downloads/m-p/496444#M20751 Anonymous 2013-07-09T19:05:50Z https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Android/being-billed-for-uk-browse-and-downloads/m-p/496446#M20752 <P>All you needed to do was disable mobile data on the phone and switch it back on should you wish to use the internet.
