BB Torch :: 9850 Missing Options Function

Recently switch jobs and had my Torch removed from former employers BES. Received confirmation that it was completed and emails stopped as expected. However, return address if found and password requirements stayed on the phone. Brought phone to Verizon service tech with the intentions to wipe phone. They were unable to perform function as the options feature and icon are missing. Service tech believed that it was removed or hidden as part of former employers security. Former employers IT group claims not to remove functions on BB phones and phone must be defective. Phone has served me well with no complaints. Would like to use it with new employers BES. Anyone know how to wipe or restore. Nothing on this phone is important. Running Software Version 7.1 Bundle 1737
