BlackBerry Internet Service Help

The subscriber can't set up a BlackBerry email address with the preferred user name

Possible cause

Possible solution

The user name that the subscriber typed might already be taken by another subscriber.

Perform one of the following actions:

  • Ask the subscriber to choose one of the alternative user names that the BlackBerry Internet Service suggests and to try again.
  • Ask the subscriber to type another user name.

The BlackBerry Internet Service might not support a character in the user name.

Supported characters include letters, numbers, the underscore, the dash, and the period.

Ask the subscriber to choose a user name that only includes these supported characters and to try creating the user name again.
