How to check remaining minutes, etc, on BB 8520

Hi there,

My Daughter has a BlackBerry 8520 on a pay monthly contract.

Its on a separate contract which runs alongside my own contract phone, but they are both billed to me in one bill each month (if that all makes sense!!)

 

So, my question is, how can she check up on her remaining minutes, texts, and data mb’s each month?

Is there a webpage she can goto on the phone which will show the usage just for her phone and not mine, or an app or something? Excuse my ignorance of blackberrys!

 

Obviously I don’t want her going over her allowance as it will all get billed to me!!!

 

Thanks in advance for any replies, Cheers, Carl.

Hi,

 

You/she has 3 options:

 

Register for My Account on Vodafone.co.uk - u can view bills, usage etc here...this will show you both numbers if they are on same account/bill, but you can see each individually broken down

 

Dial 44555

 

Download the My Vodafone app on her handset from Blackberry App World

365 – Thats great – thanks

We’ve used the My Vodafone app which shows exactly what I wanted.

 

Dont suppose theres any controls to stop her buying stuff or downloading music and the likes?

In the first month she managed to download a whole album and (allegedly) didn’t know how it happened.

 

Cheers, Carl.

All sorted.

Thanks again to 365 for sorting the initial question out with the My Vodafone app.

And the rest is now sorted thanks to Ben and Paul from the eForum team.

 

Cheers, Carl.
