    i bought a blackberry back on 12/08, still have reciept, but it wont send messages most of the time and if it does they dont deliver for hours, now i have tried with the same sim in my old phone and messages are sending no problem.
    im wondering is it possibile to get a refund, i dont have the box,

    the blackberry line is down causing internet and messages and phonecalls to all be slow or stop them from working all together.. if you bring back the phone with the receipt im sure they'l give you a refund because everyone is bringing them back .

    Are you bill or pre pay? Did you get the BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) add-on? What network are you with. PS the BlackBerry "line" is working fine

    That's good. When you say messages is it email or text messages?

    The OP's email is fine. It's their SMS which is a problem and that doesn't run off BIS.

    Do you see the options in the sms menu and can you see Service Centre listed or is it that you cant edit whats there?

    Try this:


    Go to Options and select
    Highlight SMS and select
    Highlight Service Centre: and enter either
    +353857000000
    Press the trackpad
    Highlight Save and select (press the trackpad).
