So AT&T.
If you're with them, you can only text people in the states, otherwise, it's 20 cents a text. That is so fucking gay.
If you're American.
Who are you with?
Do you text Canadians?!
Help. Haha.

Hm.
This sucks. =\
Mine are all North America wide too with Rogers.
AT&T has a 100 for 10$ a month, but that's retarded.
I'm sitting at work now, and iPhone deals only with AT&T, so I'm pondering calling them and talking them into giving credits or something... Haha.

Rogers just sent me a notice saying it costs $0.35 each text to the U.S.
It's pretty sad.

Effing hell.
I can't afford texting to the states if it's going to cost 35 cents a msg.
That's retarded.
Ohman.
I need to get rid of my cell.
Cause this is hella gay.

Wtf. My latest bill included the notice. Even with their so-called unlimited plan, it will cost each text for out of Canada.

"Please note that effective July 15th, 2008, the rate for sending a text message from Canada to the United States is changing to 25 cents and will no longer be available in the Domestic Text Messaging Plans."
Just found that on their site.
I'm cancelling my account with them.
I'll go with Telus.

I'm highly considering cancelling, but I'm still locked into the agreement, and don't have the $200 to spend.

I don't even care.
Because I'll run up way more than 200$ in the text charges.
So blah..
This pisses me off, a lot.

I have T-Mobile as well and I called them up recently asking them the same question. If you have the sidekick unlimited package, which is unlimited texting, you get charged 15c per text to Canada while texting from the U.S. If you get a text message in return from someone in Canada while in the U.S. you don't get charged for the text. It comes out of your package, which in this case is the unlimited texting package I have, it doesn't cost me a thing.

Yeah I just called Rogers and screamed at them.
They're not even offering any packages for texting to the US.
So I got out of my 300$ early cancel thing.. But I'm still pissed.
Very pissed.
