A quick snippet of news for you Vodafone customers in the UK. Today Vodafone launched their new BlackBerry Freebee on pay as you go. When customers top up £10 or more they will be entitled BBM, internet access, email and access to BlackBerry App World all for free!
In addition - the Vodafone BlackBerry Freebee also includes an extra 100MB of UK data so customers can use that at their leisure. Vodafone BlackBerry customers can opt in just by dialling 4355 for free from their handset.

Why choose Vodafone Freebees?
- No long-term commitment

- Enjoy our dependable network
- No strings attached - just top up and go

What you need to know:
Your free allowance lasts for 30 days. If you top up £10 again during this time all your great BlackBerry Internet Service features including free BBM will continue the following month.
Vodafone Blackberry Freebee is available to customers on the Pay as you go Simply price plan. It can't be used in conjunction with Vodafone Freedom Freebee, Vodafone Text & Web Freebee, Vodafone £5 Weekend Freebee, Vodafone Talk Freebee, Vodafone International Freebee or the £5 BlackBerry Internet Service subscription.
You need to opt in to Vodafone BlackBerry Freebee first, then top up your mobile phone with at least £10 to get your first free allowance - you'll only get your free allowance if you opt in before you top up.
If you already have a £5 BlackBerry Internet Service subscription you can either choose to: opt out by dialling 40035 and then wait until your current 30 day subscription ends before opting into the BlackBerry Freebee.
Opt into the BlackBerry Freebee straight away. Your £5 for 30 day subscription will continue until you top up £10, at which point your existing BlackBerry Internet Service subscription will be cancelled and we will no longer take the £5 subscription charge from you as you'll be getting your 30 day BlackBerry Freebee allowance every time you top up £10.
