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.

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. -

To begin, what ADA-compliant options are available to work with a service representative? Good question, and one that I don't know the answer to. Does anything on this page help? Products & Services Overview | Verizon Wireless
1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided. Service is normally billed through the end of the billing cycle, whether service is provided or not. "Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month’s billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then." After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. According to their legal docs, the "leagally billable amount" is through the end of the billing cycle. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?
2) It appears I will be unable to pay my bill after this dispute has been reviewed. My phone number is no longer with Verizon. The online bill payment login requires a phone number - I have never been provided with any other account number. Unfortunately, Verizon appears to close access to online bill payment when the phone number is transferred, even to accounts with unpaid invoice amounts. How can I pay my bill online? You cannot pay online once the account is cancelled. You will be mailed a paper copy of the final bill, and you can mail a check, or possibly call in and pay over the phone. But online is no longer an option once the account is cancelled. -
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 trueyou 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. -

Why do I get charged for data while I am connected to WiFi?
I am having issues with data usage on one of the 5 iPhones on my plan and have been keeping track of the data on all of the phones on my plan. I have noticed that I am being billed for data at night while I am sleeping and my phone is connected to my home wifi. Why is this? Is it just a way for Verizon to make more money?
Are you certain that you are connected to your home WiFi? If you are truly connected to WiFi, then the data connection from VZW should be disconnected. I would recommend checking your settings to ensure you are truly indeed connected to WiFi in your home and if so, then I would then suggest contacting Tier 2 technical support at VZW by calling 611 from another device so that you can work with support with your phone while on the line with them.
NOTE: iOS devices do NOT support WPS directly and if you are attempting to connect your home WiFi in this fashion, you will need to log into your home router and get the exact Paraphrase for your router and enter that into your iPhone.
Hope this makes sense and helps.
Best Wishes,

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. -
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

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. -
TS3988 I no longer need the storage I am getting charged for as I have a 64g iPhone 5 now
I no longer need to pay for iCloud storage so can you cancel ASAP as I got a iPhone 5
First, you're not talking to Apple here, this is a user-to-user forum. Apple doesn't participate here.
Second, icloud storage has nothing to do with device storage. In fact, since you are getting an iphone with 64 GB, there a good chance that you'll be filling it up a lot more than what you had on previous devices. If you backup to icloud, then you'll need that extra storage on icloud as well. -

Hi
I have a new powerbook and want to give my girlfriend my old G4 power book, she has a new iphone 5s, and wants to create a new itunes/apple id. When i try to de authorize the G4 and sign in with her new apple ID it says bad password, how can i release the G4 from my cluster of authorized apples and make her the owner so she can download music and more importantly sync her music with her phone, she only has 3 songs on her iphone, and loaded all her CD's into the g4 but cant sync, im no dummy and this shouldnt be hard, but its driving me crazy!!!!!!
thx u so much for your time heeeellppppp.Perhaps, as we have the same music tastes, for now i should just authorize her phone to my power book just to sync music, not pics, contacts etc? I'd hate to overright her contacts etc lol????

Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5?
Only Apple knows the answer to whether or not there is a verified problem and if so when will a fix be released. As is their custom, Apple does not talk about these things and the rules of these communities prohibit speculation about future udates or upgrades. It is probably safe to say if a fix is deemed necessary it will be called OS X 10.8.6.

an you tell me how to add an advanced action to the TEB so you can check for multiple lines of input? How do you add the advanced action?
Can you elaborate your requirement?
If you want to have a text wrapped around and enable a scroller for the same, you can achieve it by TEB properties and check the scroll bar option,
Is this what you are looking to achieve?
Thanks,
