How to avoid added charges on an iPhone PAYG?
I want to get an iPhone on payg but was wondering how to avoid Internet charges by location and by the phone automatically updating emails etc. Essentially unwanted to use it to make calls and texts, but only use up Internet when I want it to- so that I'm not paying for Internet every day.
How do I do this (I have an iPhone 4)
In settings just turn "Data" off and it will not use any data.
Go with T-mobile

Their iPhone PAYG SIM has 12 months Free internet IF used in an iPhone (and you text to enable the offer)
or choose one of the Three tarrifs,

they have several sensible cost ones with unlimited (or even 250/500MB!) internet.
Most networks (even O2 - good for free mins for your top up) do data for 5 pounds/moth.

I'm traveling to China from Canada in about 5 days and I want to bring my iPhone with me and i want to still be able to connect to wireless signals but I'm not entirely positive on what to do to avoid roaming charges, I'm pretty sure turning it on airplane mode and turning on the Wi-Fi would be fine but I just wanted a second opinion on what to do.
