Companies to bring in 15-cent levy on incoming text messages


Sarah Schmidt , Canwest News Service

OTTAWA - Cellphone users are about to be hit with new fees as two of Canada's telecommunications giants plan to bring in a levy on incoming text messages.

Bell Mobility will begin charging customers 15 cents per incoming text message on Aug. 8. Telus Mobility is moving to the same billing practice effective Aug. 24. Until now, their pay-per-use customers who send text messages have been charged a 15-cent fee per message, but it hasn't cost anything to receive them.


I'm not pleased with this, and I'm sure there are many other feeling the same way... Any ideas how we might go about stopping this change before it happens?
