    I find at the moment my credit is going like crazy!!
    i don't usually make phone calls and just use my free texts!
    but i do however use the Internet but i always thought i being going on my wireless network in my own home! but I'm a bit weary if my phone might be using Internet in background which i have to pay for when im away from home? how do i know im not getting charged? is there a way to block it from going on pay for Internet just for peace of mind! i haven't a clue where all my credit could be going :eek:

    You can get them to block it at the sim which also disables sms though.

    Alternatively your phone should have disable all data. On my phone its in set u/Mobile Data/Data Enabled. Though I found this isn't always reliable as other things turn it off/on.

    I think swapping a sim enables it on many phones.
