Not to sure, but I believe you still get charged anyway.
I pay 20 a month for the sidekick unlimited package, just to have unlimited texting, instant messaging, etc.
I would have to pay 15c per text to whoever I text in Canada while doing it from the U.S. Basic unlimited package might cost the same or more. When you receive a text from someone in Canada, you don't get charged.

For the record, folks with Rogers? Do NOT call your local video/cable/wireless location. We get very upset with that. Seriously. We might even call you names like "meaniehead" when we get off the phone. Call customer service. 1-888-rogers1. Thank you.
I guess that really goes for any provider. Don't call the place you bought the phone from. We can't do a thing.
For you.
We can't do a thing for you.
Also, as a disclaimer, we don't really call people names, I swear. We ...appreciate, for lack of a better word, the calls, and politely redirect. It IS best that everyone knows that the local stores have very little sway in contractual dealings beyond inception, though.
And, most cable/wireless stores are closed on Sundays (Across the nation), no matter what customer service tells you. Mine is the only one that stays open that I'm aware of. Anywhere.

I get so mad at them when they're dumb, I know how easy it is to be good at your job. Haha

I know! That's why I was pretty much expecting them to tell me that there are new charges.
I've heard some good things about Telus. They have good phones too.

Walmart is coming out with phones, or has phones or something. I assume they will be super cheap. Or go with the new Koodo, it has free texting with every plan.

Never mind about the Koodo thing, apparently I misunderstood the commercial, I swear it said unlimited texting.

I don't even know if we have Bell on PEI.
I'm so mad at this right now it's retarded.
It will cost me 700$+ a month if they're going to charge me .25 a msg.
Just not fucking practical.

I take it they don't have lives on your island. Now, if over half was from internet people, my Wow statement stays.

I'm like, connected to my phone.
Whatever I'm doing, I'm texting.
My ex and I sent at least 2500 to each other in a month.
That's one person.
Lol.
I'm at work, I'm texting constantly.
I'm out, I'm texting.
I'm sleeping, I get texts and answer them constantly all night.
I hardly use any talk time on my phone.
I have it FOR texting.
I travel a ton. I meet people everywhere, I text them. I don't call, that would kill my bill.
