I bought a used Blackberry Curve off Ebay and it hasn't come in the mail yet. If I activate this online through Sprint will they force me into a $30 data plan or is there a loophole or chance that they won't know?
I'm planning on activating it and then blocking internet on the device so that it doesn't access the data feature at all.
I understand that you are required to have a data plan with a blackberry, but if it is used and I activate it using the esn number online can I get around it.
I also wondered if it was possible to initially sign up for the data plan and then remove it afterwards?

I KNOW THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A DATA PLAN WITH BLACKBERRY, but I'm wondering if there are any loopholes that anyone has discovered or cheaper alternatives. Please do not post that I need a data plan, only answer if you have helpful tips!
Thank you
I specifically said don't answer if you're going to say I can't do it. Only answer if you know a way to and have suggestions.
