Blackberry advice
 

I'm not very "mobile savvy", so would like some advice please. I have a Virgin Mobile Samsung S3100 on the payg 8p tariff. Accessing the internet is a joke, it takes so long. If I bought the Blackberry 8520 which Virgin are offering on the same 8p payg tariff to VM customers, would I be able to put my SIM card into it and transfer the credit please?

Hi hansi, if the Blackberry 8520 was unlocked to all networks ( or you buy it off the VM site ) all you will need to do is put your sim card in and the credit would be there. Hope this helps

Hi just bear in mind that the internet on the 8520 wont be much faster that your Samsung as they both use GPRS. e-mail will be alot better. but maybe a good idea to look for a 3g handset

Check out the specs of the BB 8520 here and the reviews here:

Thanks. Do VM feature a 3g handset?

I have a Blackberry Pearl 3G from VM
very quick for internet access, unlike any network though before you switch to them I would check your postcode for signal checker

Hope this helps
