Default Used Blackberry on T-Mobile - requires activation or plan?

Please Login to Remove!

I'm currently on TMO with a basic voice plan for my Razr, and no longer under contract. If I buy a used TMO BB 8100 on ebay, can I just pop my sim card in and use it without any activation or plan renewal?

I know this won't get me data, but I don't need that at the moment. Would getting the BB data plan down the road require a contract?

Yes, you should be able to just pop your sim card in use it as a phone with no data.

As far as getting a data plan down the road, you may have to call tmo and see about contracts for that...my guess is no, but I don't know for certain...
