How-To: Send messages using your BlackBerry pin number

First things first...

What is a BlackBerry pin number?

Your BlackBerry pin number is a custom identification number that your BlackBerry was originally assigned that allows other users with your pin number to direct message you.

When I use my pin number to message other users is it free?

Yes, silly! This is why it is so great...this will be an amazing money saver over text messaging others and it's quicker than drafting an email.

So how do I send a BlackBerry pin number message and why?



You can send messages directly to a BlackBerry user's PIN rather than to the user's email address.  This is best for getting customer support directly from your service provider or contacting others when you have no direct connection aka ( no wireless or data connection).

Sending PIN messages on your BlackBerry is horribly simple to do, you just need another user's BlackBerry pin. You can only get this by asking the other user for it, this is not published anywhere (unless they do it themselves) to my knowledge.

Just follow the steps below to compose your first PIN message on your BlackBerry:

1. Open your email composer.


2. Compose a new message


3. In the "To" field enter the user's pin number you wish to send a PIN message.


4. Compose your message, and send it as usually would send an email message.
