There are different groups of people with different mobile needs. Some are heavy users of data, others are using the voice calls extensively and still there are people who cannot do without text messages. PM now has add-ons for voice calls and data for both casual and heavy users, but none available for test messages. I suggest PM to consider adding two levels of text messages, $5 for 200 and $10 for 500 out-going messages with in-coming ones free, as a new add-on option. Currently it's $15 per month for global unlimited when choosing a plan. It's either you choose the $15 or none. For some people, they don't need that much texting, but only the option of text messaging made available for them to use from time to time. This idea shoud be beneficial to all parties, PM will get additional revenue from the new text messages add-ons, at the same time, your Plan becomes more flexible to meet the needs of those who are casual users of text messages. There should be no negative impact to PM as those who MUST have text messages will not choose the text messages add-on that has a ceiling of 200 or 500, an amount they can use it up in no time. For those casual users of text messages, they will happily pay PM for the $5 or $10, and, eventually they will use up the quota and will top-up in the near future - again and again - guarantee income for PM in the long run. Perhaps those casual users will discover the benefits of texting and get converted to choose the global unlimited plan next payment cycle! Also, those casual users MUST purchase data option, either in 10-30-90 days plan or data add-on, before they can use text messages add-on. PM will then have revenue from the data add-ons, from those casual users which they may simply stay with the Province-wide plan and purchase nothing else. Again, good business for PM.
