Boy, I don't know who you guys are talking to, but it has been a nightmare trying to get 70246 put on my phone. One of the reasons I took the Unlimited Plan was because of this. Every month I get a bill, every month they bill me for txt. I call them and I get "hmmm...that dropped off your plan, and for some reason, we can't reattach it." Then they fix it, again. I'm sitting here now waiting for a supervisor.

I now have 2000 SMS messages per month at no charge. She was shocked and said this was "killer!" -- a savings of $20. :-) Thanks Ralph! Now if you can get everyone who signs up to send you half of that $20 they're saving... ;-D George ----- Original Message ----- From: Ralph Alvy To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2007 2:01 PM Subject: Re: [Treo] Re: 755p You have to get the right CS to get the "PDA SMS 2000 Allowance" plan, which is a plan that adds 2000 text messages to an unlimited data plan, so you essentially get unlimited text messages. You have to get them to find Code 70246, otherwise called "PDA SMS 2000 Allowance." If they say they can't get it for you, call again until you find a CS that knows how to find it. It usually takes a few CS people until you get it. It took me 2 CS reps. They have to first remove your other $10 text messgages plan before they can add this one.
