If your internet is blocked, I don’t think the blackberry will do anything except work as a regular dumb phone. So unless you want a blackberry that works like a regular dumb phone, you are going to have to tell Verizon to unblock your Internet, and that probably will mean you’ll have to pay them more too.

Verizon requires you to add a blackberry feature if you want to activate a blackberry device. This feature starts at $ 29.99 per month.

As an aside, you have to contact Verizon to switch your service from your current phone to the blackberry. They’ll need the ESN number from the phone during the activation process.
