New blackberry contract

Hi there I am looking to take out a blackberry contract for my 16 yr old daughter. I will need full email and internet browsing. I have tried the recommended sites to compare package costs(omio etc). Whilst they give you the option to include the minutes and texts required, they do not specify which tariffs include blackberry email and/or internet browsing. Often these are a bolt on to the plans and in some plans two bolt ons are required. These sites are confusing enough and I want to avoid being unnecesssarily stung. Any ideas on what site includes data allowances or any good packages available?
Thanks
Thanks

Which networks and Blackberry model do you prefer?0

T-Mobile charge £5 for BB service and £5 or web bolt-on.
Orange is an additional 5 for BB service which includes browsing.
O2 I believe is £7.50 to add-on which includes both as well.0 -
Blackberry Unlimited is free on O2. I have 600 mins 500 texts and Blackberry Unlimited for £35 pm. However this is an old contract and there are better deals around.
I think Orange might have one of the best deals at the moment, you will need to check to be sure.0 -
Virgin have Blackberry curve. Contracts start at £20, dependng on the bundle you want.0

I'd go t-mob because they do a fixed contract that cannot go over, and you can add on blackberry and web and walk, giving you what you need, for a fixed cost, and you know your daughter won't go over.
You're not taking out a contract for her, you're taking out a contract for yourself, and YOU are liable for bills, if she goes over, you have to pay everything, which with reverse text messaging, you can easily have a bill of a few hundred.. hence the t-mobile fixed deals the best on offer..
