Invite a member to become a BlackBerry Messenger contact

When you invite a member to become a contact, the member must accept your invitation before the person is added to your BlackBerry® Messenger contact list. After you invite a member from a group to become a BlackBerry Messenger contact, you can start a private chat by clicking the member.
  1. On the Home screen or in the Instant Messaging folder, click the BlackBerry Messenger icon.
  2. On the contact list screen, in the BlackBerry Groups category, click a group.
  3. Highlight a member who is not yet a BlackBerry Messenger contact.
  4. Press the Menu key.
  5. Click Add to BlackBerry Messenger.
  6. Click Yes.
  7. Click Send.
The member remains in the Pending category in your BlackBerry Messenger contact list until the member responds to your invitation.
