Does it cost extra extra to text message long distance?
Does anyone know the answer to this?? And if so does it cost a lot more?
which provider?
I txt to Europe frequently and it's the same, 15c, as is to domestic phone #'s
Bell. And im not talking overseas either, just like 416 to 519 or what not.

either way, maybe check their website? they usualy state the rates there
I'm with Telus and I got the $10 unlimited local text package, the overseas is an extra 5 cents.
.
with Rogers overseas they told me it was 20 cents per international txt and tried to charge me 40 cents.. and when I txt my friend Phil in New Jersey it does cost me an extra 10 cents per txt roughtly, but anywhere in Canada it doesn't cost me.
.
If you're texting to Canada then no. If you're texting to the US or elsewhere, yes
I'm with Rogers and every time I'm texting from the US it's "Roaming text messages" so yes...and if i'm texting to someone with a US phone number then it's a long distance text.

i never noticed extra charges on my bill on Fido.
orgers i think charges 0.07 extra for international (excluding US) i believe.
At least thats what it was when i was texting Kris while she was in cyprus.
i text my sister in croatia all the time...21 cents a msg, so yeah extra $0.07
edit: i hope this thread leads to a "I hate my F@CKING Wireless provider Alliance"

I think phone companies only in Canada charging oversees or long distance for SMS. It is a rip off. SMS service is totally different then voice service, all countries agreed to participate with no cost to each other. It is normal they charge some many but charging long distance is idiotic. Forget SMS, Rogers think I am long distance when I call Toronto from St Kitts just over 100km. People in US can call cost to cost with no charge.
