i like how phone companies go 'oh yeah we'll give you 500 free texts and 500mb of data every month!'
like they're giving you something, those 500 texts could probably take up about 0.5% of the data plan if they did it properly

I have unlimited free texts and calls and EVERYTHING.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:13, Reply)

In November, I had a thousand free messages.
"That'll be plenty," I thought. Then I used two thousand and had a 200 quid phone bill.

Bent.

Cool story, bro

are you some sort of bitch?

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:09, Reply)

fuck off, no you didn't
2000+ texts would mean you were sending one every 10 mins 24 hours a day or shit
(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:09, Reply)

Yes, I did.

( Kroney, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:09, Reply)

ah ok my maths was out, its 0.36 per hour
do-able i guess, but you must have ahd sore thumbs
(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:10, Reply)

i didn't factor in 8 hours sleep here, someone do it for me

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:12, Reply)

I'd struggle to type slowly enough
to only manage one text every three hours.
( Kroney, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:12, Reply)

YOUR NOT FACTORING IN YOUR SLEEP YOU PRICK

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:13, Reply)

At 0.36 texts an hour
there's plenty of time for sleep. In fact, I'm pretty sure I could sleep for 23 hours and still knock out the same amount of texts in just the one hour.

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:36, Reply)

oh wait we got the same answer, i misread it

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:36, Reply)

One text every fifteen minutes
isn't that much.
( Kroney, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:37, Reply)

it is if you think about it
because it won't have been a steady rate, you'd have gone hours without sending one, then you'd send tens or possibly hundreds in one hour,a nd then lull again

2000 is a lot
(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Wed 16 May 2012, 11:38, Reply)

if he sent very long texts
they could guzzle up 4 or 5 at a time?

i had a boyfriend who used to send me dreadful texts that would say things like "c u" and "4" and all the text speak i loathe. i was so relieved when i found out he had a shit old phone that simply couldn't cope with multiple messages.

I once made up a lie about my mate Paul
saying that when she did a live PA at a rave we went to, I turned round and saw him crying, with his hands in the air.

It was a complete lie but within about two days was 'definitely true' and remains so to this day.
