What can i do so i dont get extra charged on Fido on Iphone 3G?
What can i do so i dont get extra charged on Fido on Iphone 3G?
I currently have a simple plan, that costs $17.50/month with taxes and everything its $28/month.
I didnt take any value pack, or data plan, i didnt take anything beside the simple plan.
Now i read somewhere that i am going to get extra charge if i am using this on iphone....
Can someone tell me what i can do on the iphone so it doesnt charge me anything extra?

nothing... they receive your IMEI and will convert to a data plan eventually.... how long you have has varied for different people.

I once prayed to God for an iPhone, but quickly found out He didn't work that way...so I stole an iPhone and prayed for His forgiveness.

Call Fido and have them place an Internet block on your phone.

You would have to call them, since the website that you pointed to only seems to block internet from your side. What you want is for your carrier to block it, and therefore not charge you.

Never heard of that site, and I wouldn't trust it myself. I'd call.
