Bought an Orange pre-activated PAYG SIM pack, not registered in any
name. Put it in a SE K550i, then accessed Orange World and paid 1
pound for a days browsing.
Connect K550i to laptop, open SE PC Suite and connect to Internet.
Can use Skype, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Live Messenger (intermittently),
browse the web, Outlook for pop mail, and Outlook Express for
newsgroups. All for 1 pound a day.
Anyone else tried this, how long before Orange find out and block it
?
They won't block it - it's a recognised service.
I've been using it for 18 months or so now. I think. It's a long time,
anyway.
How is it charged - do you only pay £1 for any day on which you access the
internet? Does it dock £1 from your pre-pay balance on the first access of a
day? When does a 'day' start and end - is it 4am, as for phone calls on
tariffs which charge more for the first so many minutes each 'day'?
Any reason why it shouldn't work with an SE K300i or Nokia 6070 - both of
which have infra-red and appear to have a 'modem' function - but neither of
which appeared (the last time I looked) in Orange's on-line 'how-to connect
your computer to the internet using your mobile phone' information?
