My phone fell into a puddle, so for now i have my old lg. I want to buy a blackberry on ebay and activate, but i do not know if i would need to pay for the extra features, such as internet.

Is the Blackberry you are looking to buy on the same network provider?
If it is you can request a new SIM card from your network provider and use the Blackberry as a normal phone. If you wanted to use the full features, such as internet, email, MMS you would need to update your contract to a Blackberry plan.
If the phone is not with the same network as your old phone you could get it unlocked and use it as a normal phone. If you are on a pay monthly contract you can contact your provider and request an NUC (Network Unlock Code) to do this, otherwise bring it to a phone shop to get unlocked – about £20. This will not give you the full features though (internet, email, MMS)
nah your phone will not already have those things..
