hi Rachel... i took a vacation 2 months ago & went out of the country...emails, texts, browser access should be turned off if you dont want to incurr roaming charges from your vendor.
i did two things:
to turn off the data services....go to Options>mobile network>data svc ...and this shld give you the option to turn off/on the data services.
(you have a diff BB & carrier than i do so you may need to play with it)
2d to stop the push email:
go to the Blackberry Internet Service site (i assume you use BIS & was registered when you got your BB) & at this site it will list all the email addresses you have BB sending emails to the device. you can turn on/off individual accounts or all of them.
Good luck...... i called my vendor & didnt get any real good info so i searched Crackberry & the BIS site & figured it out on my own.
Thanks, I am using hotmail, so I found the place for Mobile Network.. so.. if I turn this setting to off, amd I still able to sent texts/call and use the browser? or does it cut all that too
mobile network turns off your data service like the browser access (that's my understanding).....texts & browser are data so that would be turned off but not the phone.
did you go to the bis site? i dont use hotmail.....I have all my diff email accts set up under that BIS site so if/whn i need to turn off the email push to my phone i can go there to temp stop it.
if you registered your hotmail account to automatically be pushed to your BB then you sign on to the BIS site....it will list all your accounts....there should be an "edit" "filter" and "delete"....USE the "filter" option....it will go then give you two radio button options...either turn on filter or off....OFF is when you dont want the emails pushed to your BB...hope this helps
