Anyone know anything about old Blackberrys?

My husband gave his old Blackberry Curve 9630 to my 11yo daughter. We went to get a new sim for it today and managed to get it unlocked using an internet-generated code. However, it will not let us add an internet email for her - when we go to Set Up, it just takes us to Enterprise set up which I think is some Blackberry specific email service. Any ideas what we can do? I have tried doing a security wipe but the same problem persists.

Is the phone an old work one of your DH's? Enterprise is usually linked to a corporate server.
You need BIS and you need to make sure you have private data with your carrier.

Thanks for answering. No, it's his old personal phone. There is no option on the phone for BIS and when I have tried to get on via desktop site, I get a message saying it cannot open an account.

Check your carrier then. You need bb data with the sim you bought.

Yes, but the carrier (O2 etc) need to set it up specifically for a blackberry.
