When you download a ringer does it come as a text message?

I want to send a text message to a friend that live in Ho Chi Minh City. What are the steps to do this?

Can someone in Canada with a Canadian service provider send a text message to someone in the United States, and will they recieve it even though they have a Canadian service provider? And can you recieve one from that same person in the US if you are in Canada? Is this the same for calling as well?

Aside from calling, text messaging is the feature getting the greatest use on most cell phones and probably the primary reason for higher than expected bills. With the cost of sending a domestic message around $.15 and receiving one approximately $.10 with the typical cell phone plan, an avid user can rack up an exorbitant bill within days.

Customers have struggled to reign in the costs. Individuals and families have instituted “call, don’t text” rules within their household, only to find that received text messages still send them over the edge. In some instances, users have been able to block texting from their service but then miss the privacy and the efficiency that texting offers. Many families have tried to quell an adolescent’s texting excess by making teens responsible for their own texting costs while others provide only prepaid services to assure that usage is held in check.

However, an answer to the cost of the burgeoning use of text messaging which may create greater family harmony while allowing consumers to make full use of the feature may come from the cellular providers. Increasingly, the major players in the telecommunications industry are providing cell phone plans which offer options that will cap texting expenses. Cell phone plans which include unlimited texting features are increasingly common while adding on a more predictable $10 to $20 per month to the plan cost.

All “unlimited texting” cell phone plans however are not necessarily equal and consumers will need to shop to find the plan that fits their usage. The following items are some of the major things to consider when comparing plans:

• How much texting is used?

If a consumer only sends/receives a few hundred messages per month, the cellular provider probably offers a texting feature with a cap at 200, 300, or 500 messages which will be less expensive than a cell phone plan that offers no limit on texting.

• Does the unlimited plan include out of network messaging?

Many now do but some can be limited to messages only within the same network.

• Does the unlimited plan include just texting?

Some of the newer unlimited texting cell phone plans include not only texting but also picture and video messaging which is an important distinction for those who use such features routinely.

• Is there a data transfer cap?

Some “unlimited” plans actually cap the amount of data transferred and will charge additional for amounts that exceed the cap.

• Will unlimited texting apply to all lines?

For those who have multiple lines within their cell phone plan, it is important to know if all lines are covered.

• Is international text messaging included in the unlimited messaging?

In many cases it will not be, and the average $.35 cost per sent message can be a rude surprise if consumers are caught unaware.

• Can you discontinue unlimited text messaging at any time?

In some cases, the unlimited messaging is an add-on feature and it can be dropped to reduce the expense at any time. In other instances, the unlimited messaging is part of the cell phone plan itself. Some carriers allow consumers to switch plans at will, while others do not. Consumers just need to know what flexibility they will or will not have during the contract period.

or does it count as just one?

like for example if im sending the same message to 3 different people..does it count as only one text or as 3?

Your choice… regardless it is still at your fingertips and you will never know when you will get that sexy or enticing message next…it’s described as addicting.

There are many places that you can sign up for a text message dating service, but we don’t want to date an automated message; we want to date or chat with “real” people and even better in our area. Finding a legitimate text message dating service can be difficult mainly because there are so many types that tend to different people’s likings. One site that comes to mind and is likely the most popular among people in the US is 10Status.com which attracts the most “daring” and “modern” interaction between members.

Text messaging has become the new sought out way of communication and with its convenience you can date other like minded people while going on with your daily business. Plain and simple it is fun and can be used in ways that traditional online dating can not.

If you aren’t familiar with this sort of dating I would recommend you giving it a shot for grins. Have fun and best of luck!

a shout out to all those girls who’s boyfriends did this. i’m one of them.

I’m no dummy, but I can’t find what the text message icons mean on my RZR V3M phone. When I send a message and it goes, there’s a check next to it in the sent mailbox. When it doesn’t go, there’s a red X. Simple enough. What does it mean if it says your message was sent, but in the sent file it has a green arrow next to it? Does that mean it WASN’T sent???

I really don’t want to resend the message and look stupid.
