SMS Rules - Incoming/Outgoing

[marc8773]

Maybe its a dumb question. I've searched but I can't find it. If I'm getting 500 SMS texts a month, does that include incoming and outgoing texts or just outgoing...etc?

Incoming and outgoing.

[Marlon_JB2]

Both, sadly... each one counts... even if you send and receive from add-a-phones on your own account...

[marc8773]

Anyone know if Sprint has a published list of SMS plans/rates?

Should be on their website.

:haha:

You'd think so! I can't seem to find a place on the site that lists the different rates.

Look harder? Actually if you go to Manage Account and click on "Add Services", it tells you which services you can add and how much it is.

On top of my head I think it's:
$5 - 300 text
$10 - 1000 text
$15 - unlimited

its $5.00/month for 300, $10.00/month for 1000 and $15. /month for unlimited. if u already get 500 free, u can still add a plan. i get 500 free on both my lines but still added 300 for my teen so she has 800

If you subscribe to the new PowerPack plans, for single line plans you can get 300 txt for $5 or Unlim. for $10. For Family, it's 300/line for $5/line, 1000/line for $10/line, Unlim./line for $15/line, or Unlim./family account for $20.

The $20 family unlim texting pack can't be added to the 59.99 550 min plan though.

[VDubb]

^^^True, none of the PowerPack add-ons can be added to the 550 min family plan.

This is true. This add on has to be paid for separately.

I should know, this is the plan we currently have.

What's weird is that I don't have that when I go to Add Services. I had to email eCare and have them add the $5/300 text plan to my account b/c there was nothing on the website that would let me do it myself. When I look at Add Services, my only options are TEP and Roadside. On the other hand, my gf has 5x the options available. I am not sure why that is....

Ok, problem here. Does a method exist to send mass text to more than 10 people? I used to have one that did but recently they all have a 10max limit which is really annoying when doing mass invites and things of that nature. Any ideas?

[Nauticaboy503]

the M1 can send a text to 25 or 50 people

Does anyone see them changing policy to what it was where text and maybe sms was like m2m and they could include Nextel and Boost. No extra fees just include it in the plans

Doubtful. Sprint makes alot of money off of "extras" on the plans, such as text messaging vision, etc
