No u cannot. Do note to use bbom will mean bis will be disabled as the apn has to be enabled.

Hi,

Apparently, starhub subscriber is unable to add BIS to an existing data plan. Every line can only have 1 x data plan.

I got this info from the sales guy. Can anyone verify this info?

Another notion:
If u have an existing data plan, and add on bis to it, it is still usable!! Some of u will be on multi-sim, where u can use the same line on a few sim cards/devices.
With bis and ur existing data plan, u still can use!

Ur blackberry usage (when using on bb), will be charged to bis. If u exceed on ur blackberry, the data plan u have will cover the additional data.
Ur other devices (ie, iphone, nokia, htc and etc..) Will be charged to the data plan that is existing. If u exceed, you will have to pay additional charges till the respective telco's price cap (If any)

SH don't allow BBOM and BIS to go together unfortunately.

All please take note that the FAQ may be down tomorrow as it migrates to a new server.

Not entirely accurate but u get the idea.

When bis is active, u shld receive a msg "device registered" from the start.
From then on, u shld be under bis unless exceed or servic cancel

Applied for BIS from M1 and got a SMS that BIS is activated

But there is no BB logo (to indicate that BIS is active), is there some switch/setting to activate it on the phone itself ? tried all sorts of settings but nothing

i think i found the answer myself seconds later after posting :

First - if u on 3g, u will get a bb logo next to 3g - if u on 2g, ur gprs will turn to GPRS
Second - u will get a message from bb "ur device is registered"

ok - hope this question is not in FAQ

How do I receive/send emails from BB Torch ? BIS has been activated and I see all the logos/GPRS, so its activated for sure.

I've tried going to http://m1.blackberry.com/ but after entering the PIN and IMEI, it tells me I can't enter from browser. How else am I suppose to enter PIN/IMEI to get myself logged in ?

damn annoying, finally found out I needed to Create an ID before I login to AppWorld and such.

I thought my email wasn't working at all cos I could not retrieve my existing emails on the server. Sent myself a mail and received it, so that means email settings etc. are all good to go.

But what about retrieving my old emails ? on iphone/android/nokia's I can retrieve my older emails via imap server.
