ROTFLMAO. Cell phone *snigger* Oh you damned American.

$170 is about £85 in real money. That's not much, you cheapskate!

Anyway, how would unlimited texts save you money on your premium rate Under-age Gerbil Slut sex chat lines?

I pay £30 ($60 in Mickey Mouse) for 1000 texts a month and free calls to landlines. My bill is usually 55 to 60 quid each month, but I've gone over £100 several times.

You are all equally crazy.

i have to concur

You dont have to ...

How much do you pay for texts? I pay 25 cents for every outgoing one & 10 cents for every incoming one

What the holy badger f*ck?

Why would you pay to receive a text? What kind of messed up contract is that?

I pay 10p (20c) for a text I think, not sure though. It could well be less. Plus a thousand free texts a month.

I've never even heard of a contract where you pay to receive a text. That's just horrible.

I don't text alot. So I have no clue how much mine cost.

For five bucks a month, Cingular gives you unlimited texts...

Why would you do anything else?

I like to stick with the old fashioned way of talking on the phone, I don't usually spend $5 a month on texts

Oh, no bro... I meant RK.

I read the title of this thread... and I knew it would be you.

$387 in texts alone...not to mention i went over my minutes too...guess i need a better plan

$387??

Ok.

So. A text is 25c. 4 texts to the dollar. 387x4= 1548.

1548 texts? A month? That's just.. mental.

How do you DO that?

I'm obsessed about this now

I've got... 118 people in my phones memory.

1548 texts would mean I texted each of them 13 times a month. Mad.

Of course, I actually chat to hardly any of those people. Some are old girlfriends, some are work contacts, some I don't know who the hell they are. For example, I have 3 separate entries for "Girl", probably numbers I've taken but forgotten to ask for a name. "Girl", "Bar girl", "A girl" is what I have. I'm not going to be chatting to them, the fact I don't know their name will almost certainly come up and it'll be awkward)

I have just over a hundred sent messages saved on my phone atm, to a total of 4 people. My girlfriend, my sister and 2 friends.

1548 texts would mean I texted each of them 387 times. That works out at 13 times a day each, everyday for a month.

That's just not true though, as my girlfriend gets most of my text loving. I'd say 70% of my texts go to her.

If I sent 1548 texts, that would be 1083 texts a month, or 36 texts a day to her. Thats 12 texts an hour, or one every 5 minutes. For 24 hours a day. And she'd dump me for crossing the line between boyfriend and insanely needy stalker man. (edit: um, not sure what happened with my maths here. It's 1.5 an hour, or 4 an hour allowing for sleep. Still, a text every 15 mins is still terrifying. I'm leaving the original because I'm an idiot and deserve to be mocked.)

That leaves 465 texts a month for everyone else, which still means I could text all 117 other people in my phone book 4 times that month. Insane.

Right. I'm on a roll now.

Lets say you sleep for a third of each day and are at school or work for a third. That's less than it'll actually be, but with weekends and holidays it'll average out.

So with 2 thirds of your time occupied, your texting fits into the third you have left.

That's 240 hours of time available to text in a month.

If you send 1548 texts a month, that's six an hour, or 154 for each 24 hour period when you can text.

So whenever you're awake and not at school, every 10 minutes you send a text.

Wow. That's not even taking into account the time you spent actually talking on your phone.

I'm scared.

She must be rich

actually, its $0.10 a text...i only have 22 people in my contacts, and i text at school all the time

s.xkitten wrote:actually, its $0.10 a text...i only have 22 people in my contacts, and i text at school all the time

3870 texts per month.

129 texts per DAY.

A text sent every 7 minutes 30 seconds.

175 texts to each contact a month.

Just put down the phone. Seriously. Put the phone the f*ck down.

I don't know you so I'm not being mean, but I seriously doubt all of those texts are, y'know, interesting.

With the money you save in a couple of months, you could take YOUR ENTIRE CONTACT LIST to a themepark.

Mental.

looking for my girl problems thread I found this and remembered how funny it was.


I now have unlimited bout an $80 total bill with internet added on too so $40 originally.


Oh, but my 7000 texts per month doesn't cost anymore
