My girlfriend just moved back to Toronto and even though its just right over the border. AT&T charged $.50 per message sent and $.40 to receive. Or I can pay $9.99 a month for 100 texts (seriously?? 100?). She had been using a pay as you go phone and paying $20 a month for unlimited texts, she text her parents for free (no additional charge on her credit card she used to load the phone) that way. I think as long as I keep a couple minutes on it the phone stays active until they are gone.
I'm thinking that is what I'll end up doing, unless someone has any other ideas?
I know we can do something with twitter where you set up private messages so you can tweet and only they receive it but it just sounds like too big of a pain.
Why do none of the big carriers have international texting plans that are decent? She got international text on her Canadian phone company no problem.
