Adding Text Msg Package to Plan
I'm in the middle of my plan month right now and do not currently have a text messaging package. Therefore, text messages are $.10/message. I've been using them a considerable amount this month and am considering adding a text message package, but am wondering how it will work. If I do add this, will it count the ones that I've been sending this month and subtract that from the number of messages in the package? I know changing rate plans works that way (you have a 300 min plan but use 500 mins, change to a 600min plan mid month and now have 100 mins left). Can anyone provide clarification on this? Thanks!

That's not true, because Cingular doesn't prorate minutes or text messages. You will be charged for the 1st month and the 1st month in advance. So if you are billed in advance you will pay 5.00 plus 9.99, the first month. But if you were previously Att or some Cingular customers you are not billed in advance and will only pay 5.00 on a 9.99 plan the first month but you will still get all 1000 from the day you started or if you get a decent rep and ask nicely. They can back date the text message feature to the beginning of the
billing cycle.
Wha - Wha - What!
Cingular DOES prorate mins and messages.
If your bill cycle is the 1st and you ad a feature on the 15th, you will get half of ...
