people have been telling me you cannnot block access to mmode, but ,in the browser settings if you put all 0s in the ip address, and put nothing in the homepage, wont it give you an error message when you press mmode/try to access, i got conflicting info saing this will/wont work, basically will deny you acess to content, but will use a small ammnt of data if it trys to connect,will this werk ? is that the reasoning behind the free 5kb when you dont have a data plan?

That is what my tech support reps keep telling me. But the problem is finding the settings on the different phones, and then explaining that to the customers over the phone. =)

But the theory is that if there's no IP address, they can't get connected, and thus cannot rack up any charges.

As for something on customer service's end that will block mmode....not possible. (or so I'm told)
