Default GPRS fallback

Ive just recieved a huge bill, daying i was using a dial up to connect. the o2 mobile web gsm connection. I never use this as i have a gprs contract. O2 say its fall back ie when i drop a gprs connection it will automatically connect me to another method of dial up!!!! So apparently I have had a gprs call for 11 hours. BUt how my battery wouldn't last that long. In a cradle they said, how when you can't connect as it reads through a computer. HELP!!!!!!

I had a similar issue. I presume you spoke to your billing dept? Speak to the data support guys at O2 and get them to explain to the billing department that the xda should not be doing this. It has the gprs connection as default and should only dial out over gsm if you manually make it do that.

This is what I did and they got my huge gsm internet bill cancelled. If you are not getting anywhere with them then demand to speak to a supervisor or managers. Kick ass dude!!!

i actually am the billing company but its my xda, we pay o2 for our minutes and they've screwed me. No way should the xda do this. it even stays connected when you set it for the battery to go off after a certain time. but on reconnection it shuts off, cunning.
