Hi,
my data is 'capped' at 500MB for 'fair usage'. But I've found a couple of people who said they were browsing and using BBMessenger frequently every day and didn't reach 300MB/month. Best thing to do might be to try a few things in the first month (and write down what you did and when) and then check your bill carefully for any usage of inclusive data/minutes/text and anything you've been charged for.
Hope this helps.
Have a nice day:-)

I have a friend who is deployed to England and he brought his unlocked Storm there to use with a prepaid SIM. He doesn't have unlimited data with his Storm.

I would actually like to hear the specific answer to this.

Unlimited BBM usage is included as part of any BB data plan. It's doesn't count towards your data usage. If you have a BB data plan, you have unlimited BBM; whether your data plan is capped at 1MB or 100000000MB.

i cant give you an exact number, but I use it a lot and download apps and themes, and also the weather gets sent to my phone every half hour and I have only used 59MB in about 25 days.

exactly...you have to have a BB plan to use BBM anyway so you should be covered under that

Can I get more then one confirmation on this, pretty sure I've read everywhere else that it does count towards your total. Just wondering, thanks

Edit: while I stumbled upon this looking up BBM data usage, as as far as I can tell it's false, BBMs do take up a (small) amount of data being sent and received, BBMs are not free
