I have a friend who lives in the US. She would like to chat through the Messenger App (Not Facebook) I don't want to be charged for texting to the US. Would there be extra charges?
Hi @CherylKirby As @Anonymous said, this is a prepaid service so there cannot be any bill charges after you have done something. Telus were able to bill you because that was a post paid service. Also, if you download and use the messaging app on wifi, there are no associated charges anyway.
I am really not too tech savvy so to clarify, if I download it to my phone I can use it through wifi and it should work with no US charges? On Telus I once texted my cousin who was visiting from China and we assumed since we could talk locally texting would be the same.1 text cost me $6! Of course I got a bill after not before!
@CherylKirby, With Public Mobile, everything is pre-paid. You are never charged extra for anything. In the case of the Messenger app, you need to have a data plan, or be connected to Wi-Fi.
Hope that answers your question. If not, just ask again!
