Below are a few important pointers when using BIS:
- Browsing the internet on all RIM handheld devices
is free, provided they use the Blackberry APN.
- Browsing the internet on a Blackberry connect handset will be charged at normal Bearer charges. (eg. Nokia E50, Nokia E61, Nokia E70, Nokia 9500 Communicator/9300 Smartphone and Sony Ericsson P910i, M600i and Sony Ericsson P 990i).
- Browsing does not include Downloading. Downloading is anything that you save to your Device or Memory Card to view at a later time.
- Using the device as a modem will be charged
at the normal data tariff per MB and data bundles do apply.
- You will be charged when streaming (eg. Youtube) even whilst
using the BlackBerry APN.
- You can disable the streaming function, uncheck
(untick) the APN setting enabled under the TCP/IP settings.
- To enable streaming, customers must tick on APN
settings enabled.
- Sending and receiving of Emails are included in
your monthly BIS subscription.
- When sending BBM messages to other BlackBerry device PIN’s that are overseas, it will also be free.
- Certain applications eg. Facebook or Twitter, are free as per agreement with Blackberry.
- Applications like Whatsapp and Mxit may be charged as there are no agreements between these application vendors and Blackberry.
- Sending SMS’s (not BBM) is charged at the normal SMS rates.
