Hi all

I've never been able to successfully buy data bundles via USSD on this phone. There is nothing wrong with the sim, because it works just fine on other phones.

On the Samsung Star, I gets to the final step of purchase, and you choose 1 to confirm, it gives the following errors:

"Network error"
"Rejected by network"

in two seperate dialog boxes.

Anyone else with this phone having the same problem? And, more importantly, how do I fix it?

Hi

How long does it take to do this process ?
Sounds more like a timeout at the end

I just timed it - took just about 60 seconds. So it times out at 60 seconds?

The process does go faster on phones with normal keys :o.

Yes I have on occasion used the sms option. I however preferred the USSD method because it is more instantaneous.
