Default Can i get internet ?

Please Login to Remove!

I recently took out a contract with TMobile through Carphone Warehouse and got a Blackberry 8900 curve , at the time i decided not to have internet as i didnt feel i needed it but now i have a new job and as i am always on the go the internet usage would be great . So i am wondering whether you know how much extra a month i could pay for like unlimited internet per month ?

Thanks

The BlackBerry BIS plan is unlimited data (internet) and costs $20 per month on top of your minutes plan. You need this for BlackBerry email, BB Messenger, and internet. While data is unlimited (those 3 are all data services), SMS messaging is extra and NOT included in the BIS plan.

Right, t-mob UK has the BB data plan (called BB email booster) for £5 per month.
From what I understand of T-mob UK's small print this is for email, and the relevant service books.
BUT may not give you access to the internet.
Web n Walk will give you internet access.
I believe this is also £5 per month extra, or free with flext/combi plans.

Best idea, pop into your local t-mobile store and talk to them about it.

Probably the best way to find out is to call your carrier and ask.
