Gavsta 0 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Hi, Does anyone have an iPhone on pay as you go with MT, and if so, can you confirm if the 3G internet works with it? The sales droid says not, but Im certain that I saw that it can do. Can anyone confirm please? Gavin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xbones 21 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 3G is only on pay monthly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gavsta 0 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 And there is no way around that? Does *any* internet work on payg? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
immortalpuppet 220 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 You can get onto the intarweb on MT payg, you cannot get onto the intarweb using an iphone on payg. Not sure about a jailbroken phone, there will no doubt be an app that lets you configure the handset so that you can mess around with the mobileconfig files and add the generic settings.

fastie 4 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 (edited) On manx pay monthly you can get full internet service, web, IM, youtube, appstore, internet radio etc. On manx paygo you can only get web service(not sure if its full www or just WAP pages), no IM no youtube no appstore. And you cannot bypass it. Hope its gonna help you. Edited November 28, 2009 by fastie Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Hedgehog 832 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I switched to Sure when I got my iphone. EDGE is fast enough and the rates are pretty cheap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alias 12 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Have you ever seen such an impressive map as 'the Isle of Man’s largest provider of Internet hotspots' (probably beaten by the gov anyway). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monty2k04 3 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Sorry to hijack this but on the same lines - I have a 3g Iphone and its with Sure, I also have a email account with manx.net. My question is I can send and receive emails when connected to wifi but not when connected to the internet (although i can surf the interweb). Anyone any ideas of the settings for the mail side?

lethargy 33 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I got an iPhone (1st generation, so no 3G) when I was on PAYG on MT, and I just switched to PAYG on Sure instead - much cheaper rates, and the internet actually works. On top of that, it's 1p/mb as opposed to MT's 50p/mb, so it means I can actually use the internet when I'm out and about without worrying about a ridiculous drain on my credit.
