Detailed instructions: Mobiles and BlackBerry

If you have a BlackBerry or standard mobile phone there are two ways you can get our software installed:

Log into PureDeal and submit the form on the Mobile Setup page in the My Account area
Type www.igmobile.com into the web browser on your phone and follow the on-screen instructions

Download software

The first method will result in our sending a WAP Push message to your phone. When you receive the message, select 'Download' to install the software and connect to the server if prompted in order to begin the installation process.

Location of software

Once you have installed the software on your phone, the Mobile Dealing icon will appear somewhere in the phone's menu. The exact location of the software will vary depending on your device. Common locations for the Mobile Dealing software are Programs, Applications or Games. (See Troubleshooting for further possible locations.)

The Mobile Dealing icon should look like this:

For BlackBerry devices, when you initially open the application you will be asked if your connection is via a proxy server. If you have a corporate BlackBerry it is likely to go through a proxy connection and you will therefore need to check this option. Personal BlackBerry devices are unlikely to access through a proxy. Please see Troubleshooting for further information.

Security messages

During the login process, you should choose to accept any security messages and select 'Yes' if asked to allow permission for your phone to send and receive data. If you are asked which data network to use, please select the 'Always ask' option, and then choose to connect using GPRS.

Once you have Java on your PDA, please install our Mobile Dealing software as follows:
Click the Download for PDA button, and select Open or Run. This will begin the installation. Please follow the on-screen prompts.
