Verizon has announced that select BlackBerry users (Curve 8330, Pearl 8130, and 8830 World Edition) can use their addictive smartphones to “stay connected to their financial information while away from home with Verizon Wireless’ Mobile Banking application.”
With Verizon’s mobile banking service, users can:
- Get account balances and account transaction history.
- Transfer funds between eligible accounts at the same financial institution.
- View and pay bills when enrolled in their financial institution’s Bill Pay service.
- View the last five transactions successfully completed on their mobile devices.
To get Mobile Banking on Verizon Wireless, users should click on the “Mobile Banking” link from the “VZ Start” homepage to download the app. There is no monthly charge for the application, although data charges may apply.
In addition to BlackBerry smartphones, Verizon’s mobile banking app/service is also available on a number of Get It Now-enabled phones.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
