Default Pay'n'go BB

Hi,

Is there any way to use a BB on Pay'n'go. I am with O2 and was hoping I could use the internet I get free to run the BB is this possible?

Is there any other service providers that support BB on pay'n'go as I really do not want a contract but want a BB.

Thanks

Most european providers require a contract before you can have BB data. There have been some reports that Orange/UK has (or had) a no contract or prepay scheme but I think that is your only UK hope.

T-Mobile has an awesome pay as you go blackberry service at the moment, £5 a month for unlimited internet and blackberry or £20 for 6 months of the same thing.

That sounds great, thanks. I'm ransacking the house I'm sure I had a load of sim cards here somewhere.

im on o2 pay as you go and i use Opera Mini on my blackberry pearl 8100.. just download Opera Mini on your comp and use Desktop Manager to install and hey presto. Only bad thing is that it wont use any free internet data but if you set Opera to not load pictures (for the basic internet usage) then it hardly uses any credit
