Question on Nextel BB billing

Both me and my VP use BB 7520s for both out BB and voice service.

They I870 is going to be out soon and my VP wants to use the BB7520 for his email and the i870 for his phone. I know this is possible as they will remove the voice plan from his BB leaving the BB service and move the voice service to his i870 sim.

I told him that it would cost no more each month to do this, he is betting it will.

Yes or no, cost more or not?

Wouldn't you lose the $5 allowance that Nextel gives for having voice and data on the same device? I thought we got a break on the data plans because we had a voice plan too and I thought it was only because of it being a BB and both plans were on the same device.

Yes, the above is the case. Bb data alone would be $50 on the 7520, then the standard phone plan price on the i870.

Yep, I forgot about that, the discount of the plan with phone service. Heck if yall could see my compnay bill for 23 Nextel phones . . . . well the $5 will be hard to find.

Thanks everyone.

I guess we bet no money, he just did not want to incur the company additional expenses due to him want two different devices. I tild him he would get tired of keeping up with two different devices but he really wants the i870. He does not know it but I will get it for him with the company paying for the phone.

This guy works like a dog for me and has been responsible for my compnay growing this year, so it is his at no cost.!

But yea, if he deserves it, I say, get it for him, if the company can afford it. Might inspire him to work harder for you. More bosses need to do things like this. I especially hate it when someone is working hard and it seems to always go unoticed. Sometimes just letting an employee know that they did a good job is all they need.
