bbm and internet not working

[chimama]

Hi, topped up my new giff gaff sim on tuesday last week along with the bbm add on. And have been enjoying the services since then. I just noticed that since yesterday morning, bbm and emails have not been dropping. The internet is not connecting. Pls I need help as this is very frustrating. Tnx.

Hi Chimama , and welcome to the giffgaff community,

The blackberry addon needs to be bought with the goodybag it cannot be bought separately

if you bought the £2.50 addon with the goodybag then follow this link http://j.mp/ggbbbrowser

if you haven't bought the blackberry goodybag addon you can still access the internet by following this guide http://j.mp/bboperamini

Hi
Go to your gg dashboard to see if you have used up all your data allowance.
Then try a battery pull, thst sorts out a lot of bb issues.

Firstly check the signal in your area to check for any faults with the network in your area. You can do so by visiting this website www.bit.ly/ggservicestatus

PLEASE NOTE: the checker only gets updated once an hour so if your problem has just started, or you’re not sure how long it’s been happening, if it says all is good, keep trying for a while to see if it gets an update.


If everything is alright with the signal in your area then you should try a manual roam which will update your connection with the network. Click on this link to view how to do a manual roam http://is.gd/manualroam

You should download the apn giffgaff app which sets up the internet for you and connect your device threw wifi to do this then you should be sorted

Try restarting your Phone/device. Please check the network coverage status of your area here too: http://www.bit.ly/ggservicestatus


Please also consider doing this manual roam onto your Phone/device: http://is.gd/manualroam


Make sure your phone settings are still correctly saved onto your blackberry.

try restarting the phone

Don't you also need to install the apn settings? Try that! And, take out the blackberry battery. In my experience, this works like gold 99.99999 percent of the time!
