Hi karra,

Welcome aboard. I have moved your thread to the correct forum (HTC Wildfire). Hopefully, you will get help from users of the same device.

Good luck. :)

Ah sorry about that dude
To remove mobile internet settings
Ok to remove all chance of connecting to the internet with mobile network, you have to delete your APN (access point name), but you might want to write down the 'Name' & 'APN' for O2 (since all mobile network providers have different APNs)

Follow these steps:
[Menu]>Settings>Wireless & network settings>Mobile networks>Access Point Names
There you might see O2 UK Postpay
[Tap] on it and you will see various sub headings, make a note of Name & APN like i said before. Press [Menu] then tap 'delete APN'

To remove WiFi settings
1) If your still in the APN screen, just press the [back arrow] until your back to 'wireless & network settings' then [tap] on Wi-Fi settings, if at home screen [Menu]>Settings>Wireless & network settings>Wi-Fi settings
2) You might have to turn on the Wi-Fi to do this, find the Wi-Fi network that you are able to connect to and delete it, [tap] and hold on the network, then press delete/forget network

Hope this helps

Btw why does it seem that you are being charged for Wi-Fi, isnt it free because your using wireless and not their mobile network, are you sure that its not 02 being dodgy about your internet usage?
 
THANKS ChryzaorFlux, thats a great help, dont know why 02 messing me about with this, i would just rather delete the settings so they cant make any more excuses when over charging me!!!
Thought i`d ask you another question as you seem to know your stuff,, once i have deleted these settings could i get them back in the future if i wanted internet???
THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR REPLY

No problem
Nope, if you delete it you can add the same APN as many times as you want :)
You just have to write it down somewhere and remember it, or you can browse the internet find it

And with your Wi-Fi, just connect to it with your Wildfire and type in the WEP/WPA key and connect
