lol, you guys are forgetting mass messages which used to use up a lot of my text messaging. now that i have cut down my text messaging plan, i hardly send any.

i am thinking i will bump it up tho. i really like text messaging. eventho, no one texts me anymore (but i think it's a reciprocal thing).

5 sent and 5 received can be one conversation... so there can be multiple in the span of a minute or 2.

Since Bell started charging $0.60/text sent while in the US my numbers have gone down.

I refrain from sending them once I cross the border. Biggest annoyance of the year.

I text an average of about 10 per month. I feel like like an odd-ball. But I'd rather call people than text back.

How many texts do you average per month, or what's the most amount of texts you ever sent? I mean non-promoter/commercial texts.


usually I send 100-250/month.
But I did have a g/f who turned me into a fiend at one point. She liked to hold full on 'text conversations' [why she didn't call instead, I have no idea]. It was so crazy, that because of transmission delays, we'd hold 3 parallel conversations at any one time. My phone didn't have the auto-word complete thing, which limited my speed or these totals probably would have been higher, but during those months, I was averaging 1300 outgoing, 1700 incoming.

God, let me tell you, it was annoying as fuck.

50 at the most

calling is easier, plus my plan only allows 30 or 50 free

I think now that I'm working it's down to 100-150 (most on weekends) combined sent and received, but the month I went to DEMF last year I sent up to 800 or something..with no unlimited plan! I had to eat the $300 bill. I still can't believe I spent 200+ bucks ...on text messaging. And considering the fact I was at DEMF, I know a whole bunch of those were totally nonsensical.

Text messages sent on any given weekend between 1-3am are hysterical, especially when read the next morning

I once had a $150+ txt message bill.

That was back when Telus would charge you $0.15/SMS to RECEIVE an SMS if it was sent online.
