New to blackberry's
I had the iphone for a bit then i switched over the the blackberry torch.
I had the AT&T data plan on the iphone and for my sim card but when i put my sim card into the torch and i tried to use Facebook and web browse it says "Access to this URL has been blocked" Please help? Thanks.
PS: I looked at the connection in the options and it says im connected to 3g and the data services is on.

You need a Blackberry data plan to use your Blackberry fully, an iphone one won't work.

so what would i have to do then?
-
You may need to call att and switch to a blackberry data plan and update you imei number. Hope that helps.

Call AT&T and have them switch your data plan. Tell them you now have a Blackberry.

I can understand people not knowing this if they bought a used BB. What I don't understand is when people purchase the BB from a carrier and the Rep lets them walk out the door without explaining what's needed.

ok thanks for the info. Do you know if it costs anything to switch over data plans from an iphone to blackberry?
-
Depends when you joined ATT. I join Cingular before it was bought by ATT. It never cost me anything to switch between data plans. When I got my curve in 2004 then switched to iphone 3gs then to the Torch, I kept the unlimited data plan and the price never changed. Guess I was grandfathered in from Cingular's plan in which I started.
If there is a difference, it shouldn't be much at all though. They usually make basic data packages similar.

It will cost you nothing to switch. Just let them know you switched to a BB, should be quick and easy
