Hi Skunks, I have a Sony Ericsson phone with Opera Mini installed. Problem is, when I use it to browse the Internet, it keeps giving me my credit/airtime balance and how much I've spent after every 20 or so seconds, much like the way Zain shows me my balance after I make a call or send a text. This is really annoying coz I have to keep gettingthese alerts. When I use Snaptu or the phone's inbuilt internet application, I don't get these prompts. I tried disabling that feature in my internet settings but it didn't work. Please help!

Opera mini only connects while loading unlike snaptu that is ever connected to the internet after you allow it to connect. I don't think that alert can be disabled!! On Mon, Jun 21, 2010 at 10:04 AM, <sheeroh@gmail.com> wrote:

Use Opera Mini on Zain with Nokia E. Don't have any issue, it only ask to connect once after entering URL. FYI Opera Mini is a proxy browser (for fast contents and compressed pic). I am a postpaid, so don't usually get all these balance SMS. My wife get them and she is prepaid, so it is a Zain issue, try to call their customer care.

you can call customer care and have the service disabled

Thanks for all your feedback. Yeah, I believe it's a Zain issue. I don't mind the balance prompts after calling or texting, only when it comes to browsing. Well, I guess you can't have it all.
