Do you get charged for using AT&T's EDGE network ?

Or can you only use WI-FI for free?
Also, I'm trying to use wi-fi at college, but I need some kind of number to give to my teacher so then he can give me a password to unlock it. Any ideas? Thx!

You can use EDGE for internet access anywhere that you have cell phone reception.
You can use WiFi access only when within range of an available WiFi network that you have been granted access to - either a free WiFi network (password protected or not) such as the WiFi network at your school or via a paid WiFi network that you have paid the required fee in order to gain access.
WiFi networks have limited range - many within 150 feet or so of the wireless router which I've found to be somewhat less with the iPhone when compared to accessing the same using a laptop with wireless card but WiFi access provides much faster internet access or data transfer speed.
EDGE access is similar to a fast dial-up connection.

  • How do you get charge for visual voicemail?

    After reading a couple of post and being completely confused by them I tried an experiment. I turn airplane mode on and then proceed to check my voicemail from earlier.
    The voicemail played without me connecting to AT$T. So this verifies that the actual voicemail is someone being pushed over to your phone. WHich explains why you can now play the voicemail in any order. (it's like playing songs like your ipod basically)
    So then here's the question: DO we still get charged for listening to the message itself?
    ON a traditional cell phone everytime you listen to a voicemail message you lose airtime according to how long you listen to that message. No with the iphone things are different. Voicemails are storage on the handset and not located at at&t.
    Based on what i am reading there are two parts to the visual voicemail. 1.) the actual service that is "pushing" the voice messages to the iphone and 2.) listening to the messages
    Since the message is already on the iphone there is no way for at&t track how many times or how long you've been listening to your voicemail.
    So 2 things can happen. 1.) the visual voicemail plan actually covers the whole thing. Listening to messages on the phone and the service that does the pushing.
    or 2.) as someone earlier posted, you still get charged for voicemail. It's charged before it's been pushed to your phone. So if X calls me and leaves me a 5 minute message, i will lose 5 minutes of airtime before before i even had a change to check the message.
    NOw if number is true then that would suck.
    Can someone verify if this is true

    you don't get charged per message.
    There's a flat rate fee for the visual voicemail service that is included in the $20/month iPhone data plan.
    The information gets sent via the Edge network to your phone, where it is stored until you delete it.

  • Do I get charged for using Itunes player or just for downloads?

    Hi,
    I never used Itunes before.  I've downloaded the player, completed all my details - user name, email etc.  But the question I have am I charged for using the Itunes player or just for the download originally?

    Neither.  The iTunes player is a free download, and there is no charge for using it.
    You will only incur a charge if you make a purchase at the iTunes Store.

  • Will you get charged for in Airplane Mode outside of the US?

    Will I get charged if I put my iPhone into Airplane Mode when traveling outside of the United States?

    Why would you be charged?   The phone wont be able to send or receive any calls or data.

  • Do you get charged for an sms if you dont open it?

    for example i send a lot of text messages to europe, where it's 20 cents a message..so if i send and get a reply, that's 40 cents in one pop
    i have an international text messaging plan with 100 texts for 10 bucks but i definitely exceed it by a lot since most of my family and friends live in europe
    the good parts about the iphone sms is that you have the preview when it says TEXT MESSAGE RECEIVED..but often, the preview is more than enough to see what the other person is trying to tell me
    for example if ask my cousin a yes/no question and he replies YES, i dont need to open that sms, since i see his answer in the preview, so i just delete the message altogether...or if he writes WHERE R U? again, i can see his whole message without having to open his meesage
    this comes in handy when i send 500 messages to europe at 20 cents per message expecially when 75% of their replies can be seen in the preview..if i do the math, it adds up
    thanks

    Yes, the phone has already received it. That's why you can see the first piece of it.
    Your desire reminds me of when I was young and long distance was very expensive. So people came up with a couple of work arounds.
    For example, if you knew a baby was due, you'd arrange by letter that once it came, you'd call and ring once for a boy, twice for a girl, and then hang up. Trucking companies used the "ring count" method extensively for letting their dispatcher know where they were, etc. Phone companies hated it.
    Another common scheme that required a bit of operator cooperation at times, was to call collect with a bogus name. For example, "Hi I'd like to call Klondike 1234 in Houston Texas, collect please. My name is Miss You." Or "My name is Itza Boya" Or just a code name like "Bill Oscar Young" that meant or spelled out ("boy") something.
    When the recipient got the collect call, they'd listen to the name for the hidden message, then refuse the call.
    Such were the early days.

  • Is WIFI free on the KIN (Do you get charged for data?)

    I have no data plan and I just checked my #DATA information and it states I have used .871MB.
    I know this amount costs 1.99$/MB
    BUT
    I accidentally surfed on the VERIZON Web Access for a website or two before I closed out. From then on I was connected to a WIFI network and I have DATA turned OFF in settings.  Is WIFI free to surf or do you incur data fees while using WIFI?
    FYI:  I just called the Verizon Wireless REP and she had no idea and told me that both cost money.  I asked her why I would use WIFI if they both cost the same because Verizon Web Access can be used anywhere where WIFI cannot, and she had no response.

    If you using WiFi only (data off) you are NOT incurring data charges.  The rep was incorrect (how do they train these people).  Browsing a couple of web pages could definitely accounted for the .871MB the system says you have used.

  • Charged for using iMessage with another iPhone

    Why did I get charged for
    Using iMessage and texting another iPhone!

    was the other iPhone on the iOS 5?  iMessages only works on latest iOS, so when you text an older phone it won't be free. 
    Also, even if you have iMessage, the color coding is what indicates if it will be an iMessage or an TXT Message.
    iMessage = Blue
    TXT Message = Green

    Does any one know if you get charged every month for an app

    Only if the app requires some sort of subscription to some service to function for which there would be a monthly charge. Otherwise you pay only once.

  • I am part of a family sharing setup.  Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?

    I am part of a family sharing setup.  Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?  If so, how do I set this up?

    Yes.  Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance.  Here is how it works:
    Family purchases and payments
    After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.
