    have them resend the service books
    If that doesn't work then you need to contact your service provider.
    Some of the providers block MSN and Yahoo. Have you chked AIM?

    As i said this is my first BB ever. No I dont have any data plan yet. A data plan is required even to use yahoo/msn? i thought its just for email. I am using an unlocked BB 8320.

    I think you need a data plan for anything internet and IM related.

    I think you'll need a data plan in order to use the BB instant messaging apps.
