I've recently got a K800i, and am on the £2.50 a month 10mb internet option. I used to be able to access hotmail when I first got the phone, but recently the hotmail homepage will load but when I click on 'mail' the screen goes blank and after 20 seconds it says 'check with operator services'.

It's been doing this for days now. I've tried clearing the cache, cookies etc and trying hotmail.com/uk and using the hotmail link from the 3 websites link.

Any ideas?

The best thing I can suggest is to download Opera Mini and use that to access hotmail. Type mini.opera.com into your phone's browser and follow the instructions to download and install. I use Opera Mini to access hotmail with no problems.
I would say though, that because Opera Mini accesses full websites rather than the ones which have been optimised for mobile, it's a litte more data intensive so it may be wise to upgrade your internet package to the £5 per month one if you are going to use Opera Mini. It does compress the pages a bit though, so you don't use quite as much data as you would by viewing the pages on a Windows PC for example.
