As to the email. You have to create your own user ID the first time you enter the BIS account creation site and you will find you PIN # by going to Options/Status. Or typing ALT+CAP+H.

Hope this helps.

Have you tried calling your cell company tech support.I know they are not always helpful but many times they will give you the info you need in seconds.. worth a try

well when i click on email settings it asks for
User ID
password

i dont recall neither lol

Please give a complet path of what you did to get to this. Is this using the Individual Email Activation from your BB? Had you ever gone to this page before? You initially need to give your BB account a username, that will become part of your BB email address, in the form of username@<hidden>. This username can be anything you want, as long as it doesn't already exist on the Provider or Blackberry networks.

hope this helps
