Are you on a contract or PAYG? Did you get the phone new? Have you synced it with iTunes to get the right settings.

 

Text the word web to 40127 and follow the instructions you get back to get the right internet settings on the phone.

If you sync the phone to iTunes in the normal way it should automatically put the right settings on the phone. However, if that doesn't work you should restore the phone as a new phone. That will reload the iOS software and the right settings. Be careful with that as it will erase any data you have on the phone so make sure it is properly backed up. Why didn't the text to 40127 work. What error did you get?
