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 feel like I'm SEVERELY under-texting.

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 . |

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 :stongue: |

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.
