How would this work Blackberry+Regular phone=???

Kyle_S

I want to get a blackberry and have the blackberry plan, plus have a regular phone, I want the minimum amount of minutes.
So would it be, $79.99 plus $10 to add another line, so $90 a month?

I know I should contact Verizon but I already did and want some answers NOW!!

Thanks!!!!

you can have an unlimited plan for the bb no corpor ate email and use it for data only for 34.99 a month then have the regular phone at 39.99 for 450 minutes

i wouldnt think its available online however it can be done at the store. you can purchase it that way then change it to the 34.99 i was mentioning when you activate it. fyi you cant add 10.00 to the 79.99 450 unl plan. fs 700 is 69.99 for 2 lines before the data plans and features

Ok I am not an expert at this so I am being biased with Verizon online, but if I wanted two lines 1 BB 1 regular, then 1 messaging option for $10, then insurance for both what would be my bottom line price per month? Then only the minimum minuets so 450 or 700. How would I do this..
Thank you so very much!

family share 700... 69.99 + 10.00 text plan+ 5.99 ins*2 + bb plan 29.99 = approx 122.00 before taxes OR 34.99 + 5.99 ins = 41.00 plus reg phone 39.99 + 10.00 text+ 5.99 ins = 56.00 totals 97.00

Again, I believe you said I can do this in the store but not online, ok so you choose the BB then select phone and continue then you choose option three down or so it says you have to slect one BB plan $30, then BB e-mail $44, so wouldn't I have to have that or no?

when you first select the bb does it happen to have an option for data only? if not you are going to have to go to the store or do it online and change it as soon as you activate it. for the time being select the 30.00

OK i get that but how do i add another line? Also I already have a contract with them so should i still do it the one plan way cause my bill now is 111 so would it be much more than that? Also if I dont pay the $30 then I won't have internet access correct?

Thanks you soo much!

Feb 25, 2008, 2:24 AM
you said you had an existing line so are you going to have a total of 3 lines? also which route are you going to go after all? the fs plan or my original sugguestion?
...

Ok, I will have total 2 lines hopefully 1 BB the pearl, then 1 regular phone i.e. Razr, then insurance on both $5*2, then 1 texting plan for $10,
I don't need many minutes, I have a contract which is up in Sept. I don't want to pay much more than what I am now $110, but with verizon don't the BB have to be on a BB plan or regular plan with a monthly fee of $30?

So if I were to have a BB plan for $80 then how would another phone be calculated into that plan?


Sorry I am quite tired but I really would like to resolve this tonight again you have been a tremendous help!! 🙂

ok i see where you are coming from now. you just want to add a new line for the bb. yes it does require a data plan. unfortunately there is not a way around that. what can do is instead of the 79.99 go with a 450 39.99 then add the 29.99 that will be cheaper than 79.99 again you dont get the corp email. make sure you are signed in and choose to add the line

haha, ok I want a total of 2 lines. But I see this is what I wanted to avoid early termination fees!! Okay so i want to switch to a data plan that would be $80 then how do you calculate my other line to that would it be just $10 more a month?

Sorry I am sooo confusing!

why not wait til your existing line is elig for an upgrade to get a new phone for that one? if your contract is up in sept on a 2 year agreement you will be elig for an upgrade 4 months before that which would be may. also by adding these 2 new lines, am i right?, you will pay an early term fee for your existing line if you disconnect
...

Feb 25, 2008, 2:49 AM
Okay both of my lines are eligible for new phones, but not too long ago verizon extended your contract when you made a change so ours was extended till sep,

Ok line one:
Razr
Insurance

Line 2:
BB
Insurance
Texting (10)

On a BB plan how do you add another line is it only $10 more a month?

you do not have to wait til your contract is up to upgrade. when you upgrade today for example it will void the remainder of your contract and create a brand new 2 year from today, are we on the same page there? as far as adding a new line are the other 2 existing lines on a fs already? if so, make sure you are signed into my acct then choose i believe my plan then add new line. it should give you the option to add new line to existing fam share then choose phone and features

Ok I get the contract part fine.
But I do not want to add another line.
Ok now I am on a FS plan with a total of two lines, two razrs one mine other my sons.

I want a BB so I will need a plan that can have two lines total.

How much will it be to have a BB and 1 reg. phone both for different people?

Again would it be $80 for BB then $10 per mont for razr?

haha, ok I want a total of 2 lines. But I see this is what I wanted to avoid early termination fees!! Okay so i want to switch to a data plan that would be $80 then how do you calculate my other line to that would it be just $10 more a month?
