texting

[mike201]

I have second sero line line for a friend.
checked usage it said casual text messages.Is there a charge for that?

[SeaCow]

If there are text messages included in the plan, as it says on the bill, then no, but usually casual texting means per-text charges.

[IncredibleLee]

Casual texts are $.15 EACH.

ugh that is ridiculous. even though i have unlimited, that is just brutal. they're only doing that because they know teenagers are prone to go 1000's over their text limit. stupid business tactic.

[mike201]

thanks for the help.i called and the changes second line to unlimited.

[myles]

damn i used to think they were .10 cents. Maybe they were back whenever i was doing my "casual texting" ... haha screw that, power pack plan $5 more for unlimited texts.

[BrucePDA]

You said it was a sero line, text messaging should be included.

They are doing it because it will force even casual users to purchase a text messaging plan.

That's what I thought... It may be a mistake on Sprint's part... don't let them charge you for unlimited if you have a SERO plan and its already supposed to be included.

SERO has unlimited, what was the charges next to the casual text messaging item?

[honey50]

I have the old sero plan when text message wasnt included... I still dont think its included unless they changed something.

TEXTING is NOT included on SERO plans anymore! I know I just switched over to a SERO plan. I haven't included the TEXTS yet, but will after my next billing period.

[tomc585]

Yes it is. My post above is a cut and paste from the SERO page from 5 min. ago. It clearly says Unlimited text messaging included with all plans through 9/29/07.

[honey50]

i emailed ecare and they added the unlimited text to my sero account. Thanks.. And its not charged and credited..

[mike201]

Thanks all. I called and the Rep changed it for my friends line.I opened her line on August 10.

Does adding the free unlimited texts to a SERO restart your contract? Anyone know the answer?

[JPSmith]

I don't think so. I just added unl text to my daughter's SERO account and nothing was said about a contract extension being required.

No, it does not.

[RHS7787]

Ok so I just added this to my SERO account but had a quick question regarding it. It says on the SERO website unlimited texting included until 9/27/07. Does that mean it is included on people who sign up before then or it expires then and at that point you will be charged for unlimited text?

[Freak4Dell]

It's included for people who sign up before then.

How does one go about getting a SERO plan? I don't know anyone that works for Sprint is this still the only way to get this type of plan?

[BrucePDA]

Read the SERO threads in the Tips & Tricks forum.
