    Go to the Access Point settings (check the user guide) and delete the
    Internet (or Web or GPRS or whatever they called it) access point.

    Wasn't with Orange was it? If so it is a mistake: some people wrongly
    get charged £10/Mb. If you call CS it should be corrected £3/Mb (?)
    IIRC.

    Welcome to the world of inflated GPRS pricing. I remember when it first
    started and was £20 per Mb in some cases. Followed by some half wits
    from the providers saying no one was using it because it was "too
    technical".

    Things have got a bit better since then though. T-mobile is one of the
    best priced but not if you don't have Web'n'Walk: as you've seen the
    price outside a bundle is awful. Ironically if you'd have been on PAYG
    you'd have paid ~£2 for that lot.

    Steve.

    And from
    http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/web/ha/browse.do
    Common Questions - Web N Walk on your Mobile -

    "You'll get the Day Pass capped at £1 automatically if you are:

    a pay as you go customer on Everyone, Mates Rates or Text Appeal
    a U-Fix customer
    a pay monthly customer who joined T-Mobile after 1 December 2006

    If you're a pay monthly customer who joined before 1 December 2006,
    call customer services on 150 and ask to opt in to the Day Pass.

    To get the capped rate, you'll also need to have a web'n'walk
    compatible phone. Check by looking for a web'n'walk icon in your
    phone's menu, or at the bottom of your screen."
