How many texts/MMS do you send a month?
I've just got my bill for last month and apparently I sent 989 SMS and 34 MMS...
I don't think this is alot, but the people I have told say its extortionate and I should try and cut down The reason I ask is that I'm sure there are people out there who send a hell of a lot more than 989 a month and I'd like to prove my friends wrong that I'm not using an "extortionate amount"

I've got 1000 "free" txts from o2 a month but always go over this...never used to but in the last few months just seem to use text messaging like an extension of my body.

During Orange's 500 free messages at weekends promotion my brother used to insist on using all of them! This means he used to send 2000 per month plus whatever he used during the week.

I'm glad im not the only one then, and now I can solidly prove to friends that there are people worse than me!
It's like texting is a part of my daily routine though, no matter how sad that sounds I stand by it....there is a list of certain people who I MUST text to see how they are, what they're up to etc. and again there are people who text me first who I feel complied to reply to |

I used to get massive phone bills with costs run up by hundreds due to sending txts after txt, i once did over 5000 in a calendar month. The benefits of not having a nagging partner anymore saying you dont keep in touch enough shows me comfortable as i have since cut down drastically and can stay in the limit of about 100 sms each month now.

I send around 250 texts per month and usually no mms although I have an allowance to send 25, so I should really use them but forget.

I use about 20 a month. I can't believe people can send so many! Just call them! I have the original "orange out here" so I have 5 free texts per day with them for life. All it cost was just a one off payment of £15.

I dont use MMS much but I can send 30 to 40 texts a month sometimes more if a very odd once in a while text says faild to send and it was sent in the first place or if I dont think text got to the other end after it said sent. I use the 02 delivery reports thing *0# and have done for a few months every since 02 text went funny for a few hours at the end of the summer.
