About Aitel Freezone

1.What is Free Zone powered by Google?

Free Zone is a new product that allows users to access Google+, Gmail,
and Google Search on their mobile phone for free – no data plan
needed. It's available on most internet-enabled mobile phones.

2.How do I use Free Zone?

You can access Free Zone using any default phone browser. You'll need
to sign in with your Google Account in order to use Google Search,
Google+, and Gmail through Free Zone. If you don't have a Google
Account you can create one easily by going to http://g.co/freezone

3.Do I need a data plan to use Free Zone?

No, you don't need a data plan to use Free Zone as it is free of
charge. As long as your phone is able to access the internet, you can
use Free Zone.

4.How does Free Zone benefit me?

When you use Google+, Gmail, and Google Search through Free Zone on
your mobile phone, you won't be charged for data. You can use Free
Zone even if you haven't subscribed to a data plan with your operator.

5.Which products can I use free of data charges in Free Zone?

You can use Google+, Gmail, and Google Search free of data charges.

6.Which browsers can I use with Free Zone?

Free Zone should be accessed with your phone's default browser. Third
party browsers (such as QQ and Bolt) are not supported.

7.Can I use Free Zone on my smart phone or Android device?

Yes, you can. Free Zone is available on most internet-enabled mobile
phones. It is optimized for non-smartphones or feature phones, but it
will work on a smartphone as well. If you want to access Free Zone on
your smartphone, please visit your operator's FAQ for instructions on
how to adjust the APN settings to ensure that you will not be charged
data for using Free Zone.

8.Can I use Free Zone on my computer or tablet?

No, you can only use Free Zone on internet-enabled mobile phones.

9.What happens if I click on a link, picture or attachment?

If you click on a link that takes you outside Google+ or Gmail or if
you want to view an email attachment, you will need to pay charges.
Before you are charged, you will see a notification page. If you don't
already have a data plan, you will be given the opportunity to sign up
for one.

10.What happens when I click on a link in the search results page?

When you click on a link in the search results page, you don't pay
anything. If you click on a link after this, you will need to pay for
this data usage (but don't worry, before you are charged, you will see
a warning page with the option to sign up for a data plan if you
want.) So for example, if you click on a search link to a Wikipedia
article, you won't pay anything. But if you click on a link within the
article, you will be charged for the data costs incurred loading that
link.

11.How many times can I click on a link for free?

Every time you click on a link in the search results page it is free.
So if you have clicked through to a link and want to find out more,
simply return to your search page and you can click on another link or
search again for free. There are no limits on the amount of searches
you can make.

12.I've tried to use Free Zone, but it is not working. What could be wrong?

While Free Zone can be used on most internet-enabled phones you could
run into issues if you are using:

a smartphone which does not allow you to change the APN settings
a phone that does not support the security certificates we use
with Free Zone *
a BlackBerry that needs a configuration change to access Free
Zone. To make the change, please contact your carrier
a Google Apps account to login, please create a @gmail.com account
and try again
2-factor authentication on your gmail account
a browser with cookies disabled

* For example Series 60 phones prior to the 3rd edition.

12.I used Free Zone on my smartphone and I think I got charged for the
usage. Why is that?

Accessing Free Zone via a smartphone on supported carriers is free.
However, based on the installed apps and the phone's settings, a
smartphone can run a number of background tasks, widgets, or apps that
use data and could incur charges.
