I'm on a BB data plan. Unlimited and so on and so on... i have a call limit set cause i don't want to use the phone to much for phoning, cause my work phone has a load of minutes, but that limit has been reached through data usage?

my carrier has charged me R2/mb which is 30c/mb in US$ terms. they said i shouldn't have been charged! 5 days and still blocked. i can't you the phone for anything. only receiving of calls and texts.

Please help!

so no one has an answer?

This really sounds like something carrier related and nothing device related. If they know there's a problem, why aren't they working on fixing it?

Is the phone tethered at any time? Tethering is exactly like using the device as a dial up modem, which can incur cell minute charges on some carriers. Could this be the case?

got wifi at home, so i never use my phone for dial-up. i shat all over one of the guys at vodacom. he tells me that it's tough and i must pay for data usage... so explained to a BB agent how a BB data plan works... what a joke. what a f()cking joke! they recorded the call and in 30min a supervisor called me back reversing the charges. does anyone know the exact settings, so that bold will be going through BIS?
