Gra1fox Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hello If taking your Blackberry handset abroad this year can everyone make sure they're phoning there network provider and turning off there DATA ROAMING. I work for a popular mobile phone company and we're forever taking calls from ****** off people complaining that there blackberry has been updating facebook etc (every half an hour i think) while they're away. Uninstalling the Apps WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM Some bills exceed the 2 figure mark...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Ralge Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 From memory of my BB, can't you turn it off in "settings" on the handset? You certainly can on iPhones. Same message applies to any smart phone or whatever that connects to www. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelhead4 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Why cant the mobile phone companies just allow it to be part of your normal allowances ?. Unless of course they are just taking the opportunity to shaft the customer...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonjon Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 My Galaxy S turns data off when ever I roam, it gives me the option to enable it but warns of the extra costs. I imagine that there would be a similar feature on the BB without having to call your service provider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
