Default BB Messenger - USA to Canada

Please Login to Remove!

My wife has a friend in Canada on a BB. She is using BB Messenger with her. Is that included or will there be international charges? We are on VZW, she is on Bell.

No for now but I would monitor it closely. The carriers are seeking other revenue streams

One of my best friends is in Calgary and I'm in Austin. She is on Telus & I am on AT&T. We must send 75-100 BBM a day. No extra charge. It's data on the BB network. We have used this while I travel all over the world on my AT&T International data plan. No extra charges for BBM.

BUT currently (and past), there are no charges to use BBMessenger from user to user ANYwhere in the world. It is all included in your BB Data Plan whether an unlimited plan or a whatever plan you have.
