internet problems

hi

i called my provider and they said that my abbility to make 3G connection (or any data connection) was not blocked. But since i called them (i had a problem with some money) and i told them i use a bb bold 9900 they just said that it wasn't possible to make any data connection without a BIS or BES contract.
I don't have Bis or Bes but i was able to use opera mini, google maps, any third party app that wasn't made by rim in the past. i just used data that i received from my provider each month
But now i cant't anymore.
Is my bb the problem? and is there a solution?
My tc/ip settings haven't changed since i started to use opera mini, etc...

ps I have friends that use their blackberry the same way as i do, and they don't have bis or bes.

Please help. Thank you

Welcome to CrackBerry!

If your carrier offers a BlackBerry data plan, and knows you're on one, they'll force you into it. ;)

Use can always use wifi.

yeah, i use wifi. But in belgium there isn't everywhere a wifi hotspot available
hope this will change in the future :)

I had the same problem here. Blocking network connection for third party apps is one way your carrier force you to use their data plan. I can bypass this with anti broken net on OS 5 but it won't help in your case anny way.
