Thread: Vodafone UK "Unlimited Texts" Plan is very misleading!!!

[EDIT]: Deleted original message. I completely misread what my Terms and Conditions said. I thought it said only the first text message in a long text message is free.

No, that isn't the case, it is the same with O2 as far as I am aware, int he past when I have had 500 messages, all of my long ones have been done as several small ones.

Thanks for the info. I've been so worried at the thought, cos I've already sent hundreds of texts and many of them long.

i dont understand whats going on but when vodafone says unlimited texts - does it mean it?

unlimited in any case or any network is 'subject to fair usage'

I think the limit is 10,000 but thats a guess, there is actually a stupid limit that no-one would get near.

its 10 000 with o2 only 3000 with vodafone

its similar to unlimited data too..
which i was stunned to find out is usually set to a fair useage of... 200 - 500mb..

outstanding... surely that is quite low, or do people find that sufficient as they normally log onto peoples wi-fi connections

500 mb on vodafone = about 16mb a day, that is more than enough for me at the mo as i do wifi, orange is 300mb i think o2 is 1gb

i believe 02 is only 200mb, i know 02 made it properly unlimited with the iphone whilst using edge.. but not with their bolt ons on other phones.

but even so, i dont think it is much at all.

with 3g having speeds around the 50kb/sec, its easy to watch youtube without it having to cache, stream video, catch some bbc news online, download a file or two, it surely must be easy to rack up the megs/gigs.. it is possible to pull around 200 megs in an hour with 3G.

so that is why we should be more careful... eventually they will open it up even more, when I started with the monthly plan it was like 15mb a month, so give it a year and it will be about 2gb or so... i hope
