T-Mobile USA: International Text Messaging. Secret Practices?

[EasyRiter]

I wonder if any of you had received any notification from T-Mobile that international text messaging charge has changed on August 29 from $0.05 to $.15 per message.

I know it did change after I called them. They told me 2 things: 1) one rep said that since very few people used this, they did not care about notifying customers, 2) 2nd one said that they sent an insert to customers.

I checked my last 2 bills--no insert, no info, nothing! It is not posted when you login into your account--you need to search for that change on T-Mobile site! One rep told me that it was my responsibiliity to figure that out.

Secret practices?

Just do not start me on this...

The stupid company charged me $5 last month for International SMS. I received a notice several months ago - back in may. I have called them twice since that inquiring about Int. sms - both times I was told the $.15 charge is undefinately pospoted.

After I received my last bill and got the charge I called and I wal told that the new charge started on August 29th. To make the long story short - after 45 mins on the phone and after spekaing with supervisor they still refused to refund me $5 since I was not notified when exactly this change will take place......

I have been doing international text messaging since I got my phones, one is on the Flex plan and have a bundle for texting, the other is pay as you go. However, since last week messages from both phones are no longer being received. If you have a textting bundle your costs remain the same except when u overstep the limit. Thats when you pay the $.20 per message. My bundle is $4.99 for 400 messages.

You can try http://Send2World.com as a cheaper alternative. It lets you use your domestic messages in your text message package to send international.

With FishText.com (http://www.fishtext.com) it's just over 1.5 cents per international message from your phone as a java application or from your computer.

Why are you repeating the same original post?

Yes, T-Mobile has international texting and most cost info depending on country.
Log into your T-mobile online account and do a search for international calls!

Text charge is usually depending on which country you travel to!
