    i noticed that when i register for a day of unlimited blackberry plan, after loading up P60 just to try it, it would deduct the P50, but when i check my load balance, only P1 remains. The P10 seems to be deducted without my knowledge for the P10/30 mins browsing. How is it possible? I’m using my old blackberry 8800. Even after the registration to the plan has expired, and I do not renew my registration, whenever I load up, it would automatically eat up the credits. I just find it weird that I dont even use the Smart WAP and it deducts all those. Called up customer service about this but they just suck big time. Smart service is very appalling. I mean seriously.

    bro…ur not just changing pin..u are changing ur unit….hahaha.the pin is some kind of id number of a blackberry…every unit has its own pin..

  5. Avatar for dongv dongv says:

    thanks, but what I mean is your personal pin on other’s phone. when you change phone, they can’t contact you at the new phone (with new pin), am I correct? you have to notify all of your contact that you change pin?

    @dongv: When you backup your BBM contacts from your old phone then load them to your new one, the PIN which is registered in your contacts BBM will automatically update to the new one.

    internet browsing setup is automatic when you received your service book. Depending on the bb you use, you’ll have an option to use either “internet browser” or “wap smart” as your default browser configuration

    web browsing is covered…they are just reminding that if u used the wap setting on ur options for your browser u will be charged..but if u r using the internet browser setting u can browse unlimited..make sure before you comment about something that u know what u are talkin about..
    peace..

    SMART is still oh so stupid.

    Whats the point of calling it “Unlimited Blackberry Prepaid Plan” when web browsing is not covered and you will still be metered for use.

    There is no point of discrimination of these services.

    SMS, Push-Email, IM, web browsing are all just DATA.

    I tried what Miguel said, and it worked for a day. Today, I’m trying to renew, and did all the steps above too. But it didn’t work. I also did a “wipe off”, still to no avail.

    so everytime you change BB unit, your pin is different, isn’t it hard to notify everyone on your messenger list?

  17. Avatar for miguelmallari miguelmallari says:

    pin is from the fone…not from ur sim

  18. Avatar for dongv dongv says:

    if you change phone unit, then you will have a new pin? so all your friend will have to notified of the new pin in order to contact you?
