Was on holidays recently and accessed internet via free hotel wifi- but bill is now very high for downloads. I am confused! Can anyone explain how it all works... thanks
did you have your data roaming turned on? Have you a smart phone? You probably have it set to synch in the background and push notifications through, things you wouldn't think of such as the weather app on a htc front screen, etc.
When travelling abroad I always turn off Data Roaming and Cellular Data. You can find these in Settings>General>Network. This will ensure that your phone will only use WiFi for data.

Even though there was wifi, you must have been accessing web content using 3G. The details are on the top left of your phone screen. 3G or E means you're paying for it.
