Hello,

Is it possible to set up a pay as you go plan with data?

I have a galaxy s2 that I want to use but I will be here for 6 months so I dont want to sign a contract. Is it possible to buy data with a pay as you go card?

Otherwise if i ditch a one year contract early what happens?

I actually have the same question in regards to data on a pay as you go card. I think there's a daily allowance where you pay so much won for that day's worth (basically, just paying the same price every single day, no matter how much/little you use the data on a given day), but I could be wrong.

I'm going to try and do this with my iPhone 4S, when it arrives.

if you already own the phone i believe you can just set up a month to month plan and prepay it all up front or pay per month without any contracts.

if you are using a galaxy s2 that didn't originate from lg u+ you will have to use it on sk or kt because lg u+ uses a different frequency for their 3g than sk and kt. on top of that sms on sk will present issues because they use a proprietary setup for their sms.

in short, get a month to month plan at kt.
