My Current BB Plan and Upgrading Question

[boost3d23]

Its probably a beat to death question, so I apologize. When I bought my BB Pearl (close to 2 years ago), I signed up for the Unlimited BIS Data Plan for $29.99 and it included 300 text messages. I looked today since my upgrade period is approaching (hopefully in time to get the Bold 2..) and the only BB Unlimited Plans I see are for $34.99 and no text messages included. So my question is when I upgrade my device to another BB will I have to sign up for the new BB Unlimited Plan or will T-mobile allow me to stay with my current plan? I ask because I know they sometimes do this if your a long term customer of T mobile but I've only been with them for close to 2 years (how long I had my BB).

I think this should answer all of your questions...

I can't make the details on the plan any clearer than the picture states.

I took that screen shot straight off the T-Mobile website.

It's been available for months.

Thanks found it. It was under services and not plans. I was looking under plans and it didn't have that option.

You will not have to change your plan when you upgrade. When I upgraded and needed a data plan, T-Mobile let me stay on the 19.99 data plan for BB, which is even older than yours!

Some reps will tell you that you need to switch, but this is wrong. retentions and tier 3 say you can keep it. Just call up and order and say you want to keep your old data plan and they won't change it.
