Did you see 3's new €40pm business plan unlimited everything i'm going to move to it, think it has the blackberry add on included. They don't charge on any of the consumer plans for BIS not sure about BES.

i remember before using BES no problem with a standard Vodafone blackberry add on ( normal consumer BIS add on) and it worked fine..

its only lately, that it has appeared that Irish operators are differentiating between BIS and BES...

interesting. I think you were probably just getting away with it. Would BES express suit you instead? I've always want to set this up

BES Express is the way to go in my mind anyway. Not much difference between it and BES except management of users and extra security
