MSN Messenger Alternative?

[IronDiggy]

So I just upgraded my plan too Bells Unlimited 30 data plan and I find out apperently that MSN/Live Messenger magically doesn't work with the unlimited plans for some reaon(tech support told me that alltho a number of people at work have the same plan and use msn all day long). So my question is, is there an alternative I can put on my phone that will let me connect to the messenger service. Like Trillian or aMSN?

why wont it work...
if they offer you 30 gigs of data ... how does it matter what ur using it for????

that makes NO SENSE to me at all lol
maybe you're not doing something right!... ( ps: bell is full of sh!t ) ( pss: tech support agents have no idea what they're talking about )!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@$#%)#($_$%^

I don't know why. I keep getting this Connection Error(65) dealy. I've spent a few hours scouring google for fixes but anything I've found either hasn't worked or it's been people saying it just doesn't work with their unlimited data plans. Also I don't have 30 gigs of data I have unlimited data for $30/mo. I might try calling them again later see if I can get a different agent or something. But I figured I would see if anyone with their vast knowledge of BlackBerrys might know of a workaround or alternative that would work.
