I know its wap charges have been bought up before but here my story
[RANT]
My mate is on vodaphones 1GB mobile data plan and this includes wap useage...
Great I think ill go on telecoms 1GB as im developing a interent radio java player for my phone
Rep at telecom store says ALL data included, great I think so I sign up
Check my bill online in the weekend and $670 chage for wap..what I say, they say call back monday - friday
Called today spoke to a friendly advanced data support techy who said dont worry keep using the service as normal, at the end of the month youll get credited back the value of 1GB data or if lesser however much i use.
Me:So if i use all 1GB then @5c kb ill have $50,000 charges at the end of the month?
Tech: Yes but their will also be a credit to offset it
Seemed a little strange to me but ok...
10 mins later calls back
Tech: Ahh youve been using WAP
Me: Ahh yes and?
Tech: WAPS not included
....
...
Long story short they have decided to refund the wap charges and offered to take me off the 1GB plan...WELL DONE :)
Anyway their website mentions nothing excluding wap and the tech gave me wrong ifo. I mean come on if the name of the plan is mobile data plan then you could reaonably expect wap was included unless otherwise stated. I think this needs clearing up on the website

And why do they not have a wap data plan in that case?
