How much does it cost to text or use WAP?
Mobile texts & WAP differ according to your service provider. A text message to 63876 is charged at your standard outbound rate plus a maximum of 12p for the returned text. You will be charged if you send an incorrect or invalid text. WAP is generally much cheaper than texting. GPRS WAP costs are based on the amount of data downloaded and they vary between networks and tariffs. For detailed information on WAP costs, check with your service provider. A typical cost for one request for bus departure information from a GPRS WAP phone is approximately 2p. Using WAP also has the added benefit that the information automatically refreshes every 60 seconds, meaning you can keep up to date with the bus departure information, without the need to request the information again. Each refresh is likely to cost around 2p.
