Native BB email address

Ok so I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but I'm on my second BB. I had a Curve 8330 now I have a Tour. When I first got my Curve a year and a half ago I set up a BB email account on it [email protected]. But then I deleted it. Today I went to add it back again this time to my Tour and it wouldn't let me use the same username. I thought maybe someone else grabbed the same name during the time I didn't have it on my phone but what are the odds that something like that would happen. So anyway, if you remove the fact that some else may have the username, shouldn't I be able to re-add the same name on a different BB device?

yes you should be able to add it back I have before more then likely someone has it

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. Thank you.

When you delete an account off the device it doesn't delete th existence of the email address. Have you tried accessing the BIS site? Try that. If you had BIS set up before and you access with the same info that address should be there. On the BIS site you can then change your device PIN to your current model. Then re-send and it should be on your phone.
