lol, I think you need to sign up for unlimited incoming or something to receive them for free.

That's pretty cool, but they probably just tracked an old cell number from someone else

It's 5 dollars a month for the minimum plan and so far I am averaging 2 per month. I have people I actually know e-mail me instead so it isn't a problem except for people I DON'T know.

Yeah that would be incredibly gay.

Pretty weird coincidence there lol. I've had some strange random calls in my time, some arabic guy calling me, thinking I was some guy called mike and claiming to be my father, some german guy insisting that I'd called him and one time my friend called me from his house phone a couple miles from where I was and for some reason it was routed through a Nigerian phone exchange, the line quality was awful.

I just checked and I DO pay for texts, sent or received, regardless of if I open them.

I think I can deactivate them entirely if I want though.

oO paying for receiving text messages? I don't think there is a single phone company in Germany charging for that. You can't even control if you accept it. So how can they charge you?

I think you have the option to deactivate all text messaging which makes it not completely evil but it's still pretty much bs.

It's the same here in Canada. For Bell, Telus, and Rogers users, unless you get a texting plan, they charge you money for incoming texts. So theoretically, somebody could be a total dick and spam you texts, and you'd probably have to pay for it. [ Which is total bs imo ]

Most likely you have the option of banning individual numbers. With Verizon I can block up to 5 I think.

Someone told me his friend was being a dick and sending him tons of messages which would piss me off too.

you can actually, you have to go into a store or call and have them block text messaging service all together.


It is total bullshit though. And yea like every other country besides america has incredibly good cell phone plans. I think ireland was one of the best
