T-mobile UK users help needed
 

Hi

I bought the N900 onn contract agreement for T-Mobile UK via a retailer.
I still had a month left on my 02 contract so I used the n900 with msn (buterfly plugin) with the odd hiccup but on a 3G connection.

I have finally moved to the T-Mobile account and it seems that there is an issue with the MSN plugin.

Can anyone else confirm they are having the same issue on T-Mobile UK?


Thanks

Tmobile block messenger i think.
As i can use piggin at home on wi-fi but not out and about on Tmobile. and there was some mention of no msn on my PaYG contract

Yeah, T-Mobile block messenger ports on the standard Web'n'walk package unfortunately. You need to upgrade to Web'n'walk plus which costs more.

The thing is Skype is not blocked and they say I have a 3GB usage allowence???

Just called tech support about as much use as .....


Thanks

I don't use msn, but removing Content Lock might help. https://www.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-.../content-lock/

done that thanks

Unless things have changed, the 3GB allowance is Web'n'Walk Plus which should have IM (but no voice) available.

Re: T-mobile UK users help needed
 

I did that ages ago - makes no difference. Google chat is the only IM protocol that they don't (or can't) block in my experience.

They do this to promote their own crappy, pay-extra messenger program that isn't even released for the N900. Idiots.

This will be *the* reason (aside from network coverage issues) why I switch from T-Mobile in a month or so.

darlomrh, what was O2 like on the N900? That's where I think I'm headed!

Spanner

It works better than my current T-Mobile setup. I moved for 2 reasons. 1 cheaper web add-on 2 couldn't afford the £400 + upfront cost for the N900

On O2 3g msn and voip connected ok.

Odd thing is Sype, Ovi and Google talk connect ok. I know this is trivial in the grand scheme of things but it is annoying.

I may pop into a T-Mobile store see if I can speak to someone who is not reading from a script.


Thanks all for help
