We all know and love text massaging but SMS rates have doubled over the past three years from .10 to .20. You might assume that with more people text-ing, it’s costing the carrier companies more money, but that is not the case. Fact is text messages travel through the reserved wireless airwaves and have absolutely no impact on the carrier. So why the inflated rates you might ask? Well carriers want to make more and more money on our texting addictions.
