Remember this from yesterday?

Has anyone experienced this situation? A reader emailed me telling me that his Nokia E61 just stopped working with mobile data recently.

Completely stopped.

The phone works fine, mobile data is screwed. He can’t get anything working at all.

He phoned T-Mobile UK (oh dear) and the polite people on the end of the phone explained that he had his mobile data settings configured incorrectly.

Absolute tosh, he did nothing to the device and the settings are all there, fine and dandy.

Turns out T-Mobile simply, er, disabled mobile data services on the sim card… by mistake. For some reason. Who knows.

It’s re-enabled now, the reader tells me. And working.

Deary me… I wonder what happened there?
