- Hi all
I have an unlocked blackberry 8310 with Virgin (UK). I cant understand why on my bill there are loads of connections to the internet showing which is doubling my bill each month.
At first I thought that when I got it unlocked that maybe using the information I provided the person had somehow cloned my phone number/ phone etc and was using the connection is this possible?
I spoke to the provider and they were basically saying I was pressing a button to connect without realising. I only use my phone when i am texting or making a call, if that was the case the time it shows I was connecting to the internet would be roughly at the same time as i was texting/calling. This is not the case. Is there some sort of auto connection - checking for email etc etc that I am unaware of. The provider has disabled my connection to the internet at their end to stop the problem but there must be another way. I may want to browse the internet now and again or use the GPS feature (which i believe wont work now either) but as it stands I would have to contact the provider again, get them to enable the feature, use it, then ring back again!! It cant be that difficult?
Any help would be really appreciated!!10-18-10 04:37 AMLike 0 -

A BB will always use some data when its available its the nature of the BB. With keeping Data services off, you can turn it on to view a website or GPS, then just disable it again.
