Okay so I got an iPhone4 for my xmas on a contract with T-Mobile. My mate is on Vodafone and he has the iPhone4, he says on his Phone Bill that comes in every month it has all the website he has visited? I was wondering if this was the case with all Phone Providers or if it is just with Vodafone. Can anyone help? +Rep for good answers :)

I'm on a contract with vodafone and a list is recorded, but you have to go in-store to get the visited sites.

I'm really not sure, my dad has never requested it. I do think it contains a list of visited URLs with times and dates.

All networks can if you request them, but usually they dont send them automatically. We don't get a list, our old paper bills, and our current e-bills, didn't even say how much data we've used (our data is included in our plans), but if we go online we see a list like this which is all generic stuff, doesn't say what we've been on:

Has someone been on something they shouldn't have? ;)

You'd be surprised what the majority of mobile traffic actually is ;)

I'm on T-Mobile and one of my family members pays the bill. They can log in and check what I've been using but they can't see exactly what URL's I've visited.

I've never really needed to request this sort of thing but maybe if you ring them up or go in-store they might be able to find out.

If you're panicking because you don't want the bill payer to see what you're going on then you shouldn't have any problems unless they try and ask T-Mobile exactly what you've been viewing, but I never thought that was possible!

This is what the bill payer can see on-line (I believe T-Mobile only do e-billing, paper billing is old school I think)

I think it's paper billing i do lol, +rep for the answer it helped a lot. Also, thanks for telling me this, helped a lot! :) It's not that I don't want people to see what I go on it's the fact if my parents saw they would prob search it up and then be like "ooooh you were looking at a new fragrance (this is just an example LOL) is this for a new girl? Do you have a girlfriend?!" Something along those lines.

They shouldn't be able to find out unless they really really wanted to, they couldn't do it by looking at the paper bill. :)

It's easy, all they have to do is ring Customer Services, verify their identity as account owner and they'll mail you a copy ;)
