My last 2 phones were the Curve 8520(something like that) and the Curve 9360(or something like that XD) With them I simply pay �5 pound a month and I get unlimited internet. Last week I bought a Q5 expecting the same thing, how wrong I was. I've spent 40 pound on internet bundles in 1 week! So I'm considering getting the Bold 9900 but only if the BIS is unlimited like it is with the Curves. Can someone tell me if it is or isn't?

Yes, the Bold 9900 would use a BIS plan, the same as the 8520.

Completely unlimited?

[Ecm]

That would depend upon the BIS plan(s) available to you from your carrier. My point is that the 9900 uses BIS data plans, as does the 8520.

But the Q5 uses BIS aswell doesn't it? I activated it and I had "exceeded my usage limit" within 25 minutes. That's with the same provider I used with my Curves btw (downloading hundreds of songs and videos and browsing internet most of the day) so I know it was unlimited with the Curves.

None of the BB10 phones use BIS, they use ordinary data. Your Q5 will use ordinary data. And that data use usn't compressed on BB10 as it is with the legacy devices and BIS.
