Just got an ace on o2 payg. My data packets keep switching on depsite knocking them off. Usually after the phone sleeps and i reactivate, it is back on again. Please help as this is using my credit!! I have deactivated all auto updates, auto syncing etc that i can find and checked all apps for permissions etc. What else could be happening here?
