Is anybody else having the problem, with their internet and MMS being cut off?

I have a BB 8830 WE, and it got cut off yesterday.

And I know Metro's cutting off people after Oct. 7th, but I mine was cut off Oct. 9th and worked after the 7th and even the day after.

Well, they probably cut you off now.
So, sell your 8830 and purchase a MetroPCS branded 8530!

I know that there's people who'll probably have brand new service books, or people who do and will post them.

.. But I'm dissapointed they cut me off.

We found our answer everyone.
Since Metro is upgrading to 4G, all flashed smart-phones will be cut down to basic calling and texting.
If you want a smart-phone on Metro, you should purchase their BB 8530.

You could also pay $35 on Virgin Mobile for an 8530 or $60 for an 8530 on Boost Mobile.
But both VM and Boost use Sprint towers, so yeah.
