Search for the right montly plan. Curve 8900, Need advice!

[Terrigno]

Hello fellow Blackberry users. Im a loyal Verizon subscriber and will not leave them. I just purchased an 8900 Curve brand new online. I wanted to know what you think is the best plan for me to get, just like the flex pay. I dont want to sign a contract. I want to try the phone out for a couple of months with just the Data. Interent and Email. I got my Storm for all that jaz, but just had to buy the Curve and see what the new one is like. I could pick between T Mobile and AT&T now that I can swap out sims and what not. But I figure the phone is a T Mobile phone and will come with a T Mobile sim, so it would be better just to go with there plans. There service is actually really good in my section of Jersey.

Is there anyone on a flex pay plan? How does that work out. Any recommendations? I dont mind carrying 2 Blackberrys with me lol. I just want to do it for a couple of months and see how the Curve makes out. Any recommendations or feedback is highly appreciative. Thank you so much.

PS. Dont know much about T Mobile since Ive been with Verizon forever. Thats why Im asking this stuff to people that have been with them and understand how things work with them.

Yes, T-Mobile has a flex pay but I have never used it. I am on their regular plan. All that I know is you pay a month in advance, no contract, and can cancel at any time (I think). If you want a regular contract you can eventually move over to that also.

I see. Thank you for the info my friend. Anymore feedback is appreciated.

Tmobile flex pay monthly sounds like what u need. U can bail at anytime. And if u decide u don't want that bb. Let me know.

Well, I had a guy tell me that on ebay, sellers sell T Mobile Sim Cards? To use for each month. There unlimited minutes and Data and all that. That definatly wouldnt be bad. That would be exactly what im looking for. Just want to know if there is others out there who have tried this? I am new to using a T Mobile phone so know nothing about switching Sim cards. Only did that with my Mad Old nextel I had back in the day.

Been one for nearly a year.

I like it and have no problems. I'm the same way, don't want contracts especially in todays job market.

No complaints other then the price being $5/mo higher then having a contract. But TMO's always been willing to bend over backwards for any problems.
I.E. When I first signed up I got put on the BIS plan vs BES and they switched it without charge! Even changed my # without charge when I ported my wife's phone onto the plan. (Good to know: the area code on all phones within the plan must match). I think I spent 3 hours working with the tech because the previous ones had made such a mess of my plan.

Anywho... Flexpay does what it's supposed to and let's you bring your own and not have a contract.
