hi everyones. i just got my first data charges burned my pocket just now. my situation is like this. today morning suddenly my digi postpaid account achieved credit limit rm280 from data charge. omg i dont even set up my apn gprs setting at my iphone 3gs. how come they charge for it ? when im waiting the customer service at digi center. i met a guy, he is also iphone user. he told me that eventhough u dont set up the apn settings, suft net only use wifi WITHOUT turning off the "DATA" in sbsettings. they still will charge u. everytime after iphone reboot will turn on the "DATA". and he told me that get the " AUTO OFF DATA TOGGLE" from cydia. however i dont manage to get This. did u guys using it ? thanks.

if you could reach ur credit limit of RM280 means the basic plan idigi88 is good enough for you monthly, RM 88. iPhone is always a net aware device, its either you find a way to solve the problem or sign up a plan, and i dont think they allow to discuss about JB.

This is my first iphone so I was previously using just a standard Value 50 (with no data plan).

Just to update, my line got barred as well. I called up the CS and told them to unbar it and they did without any charges or asking me to pay my bill first. SO they did.

Anyway, another question.. SOmeone here said its the cellular data that is constantly incurring charges and this is not reflected in the iphoone counter. Is that true?

My phone bill updated at 1pm was RM331, and then updated at 4pm was RM349. But I clearly remember that between 1pm and 4pm my 3g AND cellular data was turned off..

impossible the cellular data in question is actually EDGE and 3G, they do incur data count, btw i was on value plus 50 but i didnt face similar issue as you. I think its a system glitch on maxis side.
