How To Check BIS Expiry Date & Status of All Network

BlackBerry is a device commonly used by Nigerians and almost everybody wants to have a BlackBerry phone. It’s a common saying among Nigerians that a Blackberry phone without BIS (Blackberry Internet Service) is just like a train without an engine i.e. toy.

Since Blackberry is widely used among Nigerians, some BB users don’t know the exact date their BIS will expire and the remaining data. Today, I want to share how any Blackberry user can check the expiry date and remaining data on their BIS on the four major Nigeria Networks i.e. MTN, GLO, Airtel & Etisalat.

How To Use MTN BIS to Browse On Computer Unlimitedly

Recently, I shared a post on how anyone can use their BlackBerry device as Modems. From my research I learnt that our MTN BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) cannot be use for pinging, chatting and for other BlackBerry services alone. I learnt that it can be use to browse and download unlimitedly on computers without any limitation. When I found this, I was happy because at least this will save me and other interested readers some money.

How to Use Your MTN BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) on Your Computer 

1. You must first subscribe to the MTN BIS. This can be done by sending BBC to 21600 (#1,500 / Month) or BBC WEEK to 21600(#500 / Week) through text.

2. After that a subscription confirmatory message will be sent to you, then connect your BB with your computer or Insert your Sim card into your Modem.

3. You need to create a new connection profile on your BlackBerry Desktop Manager or Modem using the following:

Access Point: web.gprs.mtnnigeria.net
Username: blank
Password: blank

After proper configuration, then connect.
