GPRS/MMS on Fresh?

Mr Cable · 04-12-2004, 03:34

Anyone have any idea of whether Fresh/CPW have any plans/capability to launch GPRS & MMS of the network?

I'm just look at sticking my kid brother on it. He's a light user and you can't go far wrong with 5p texts to any network.

Fresh is a virtual network on T-mobile, like Virgin, so it's physically possible, it just needs the will on their part.
Why not ring up CPW and say you're thinking of becoming a customer, but only if they do MMS/GPRS? They should tell you if there are any plans for it...

I'm just getting a decent phone myself, think will have that on Orange, and have fresh on an additional phone. I carrry 2

.

T-Mobile signal no good in city centre, so Orange does the trick there
