T Mobile offers the Internet for 1 pound a day

Thu, 03 Aug 2006

T-Mobile has opened up its web'n'walk Internet service to its pay-as-you-go handset customers today hoping to draw in more users.

The announcement, designed to open up the mobile Internet to everyone, will give T-Mobile pay-as-you-go customers the ability to email and surf the web whenever and with complete control on costs. T-Mobile has said that 1 kilobyte of data will cost under 1p however to encourage more use, the company is capping the cost of browsing to £1 a day for unlimited access if the customers is signed up to Mates Rates, Text Appeal and Everyone pay-as-you-go plans. The service is currently only be available on the Motorola v3 RAZR and Nokia 6131, though support for more handsets is promised before Christmas .

Users are not penalised for accessing the Internet several times a day and spending less than £1 during each session, as the cost of each separate session counts towards the £1 threshold.

Web 'n' Walk is a great service for accessing websites from your mobile phone (if you have the right handset), but woe betide anyone who tries to use the tariff with their laptop, use Voice over IP, or even watch a streaming video from the internet.

T-Mobile makes it very clear in its terms and conditions that such behaviour will not be tolerated and, if detected, will result in a stern warning followed by a reduction in service.
