LG Wireless Phone

Verizon wireless cell phones...?

I just got a new Verizon LG cell phone and I was wondering if it costs money to talk on IM or e-mail, on the cell phone?

1. yes it does,,, go online, check your plan and sign-up for the enhanced service or else you will have a big bill on your statement.
2. nothing in life is free my dear - talking, and texting, sending pix, downloading songs, all cost $$$ If you think you may be using one of these options frequently - see if they have a plan that would save you money on that particular option (ie. for $10 a month you can get unlimited text and pix instead of paying 10 cents for text and 25 cents for pix)
3. Any additional service will cost you extra - be it IM, Txt msg or email. Verizon has various plans in case you do use these services a lot. Talk to their rep or see their plans on Verizonwireless.com. You will get a better idea. Their unlimited txt msg is $10.00 per month
4. IM/Email is charged on a text message basis with most of the carriers. Cost per message is determined by the plan or add-on s you have. The standard America's Choice® 900 Login and check http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/index.html
5. instant messages count as a text message, so u need a text package or you are going to have an outrageous bill. also the text packages they have dont have an unlimited option so u have to keep track of your text, u can do so with #data. email, would count against your minutes if u are on the web. so yes that will cost you money. and talkin can cost u money too if u go over of course, keep track of your minutes with #min. in order to keep track of your mins and data your going to need to find out when ur bill cycle starts and ends. call the customer service line and they can tell you. good luck
