How do Instant Messages show up on my phone bill?

**KPizzle** · 09-01-2010, 07:11 PM

I have unlimited texting with verizon wireless. If I were to use the Instant Messager system every "IM" through (AIM, MSN messenger, or Yahoo) would count as a text, but how would this be displayed on my phone bill or will it be displayed at all?

Thanks

Ellen does it show he details of data used at all if there is no charge associated with it?

The reason I ask is because I have unlimited data on AT&T and the usage shows up in details of time of connection & kb excanged. Interesting how the different companies do things differently.

Ellen, thanks. This part is also different, mine never zeroes out within the billing cycle,

Here is what mine says today - 18 days into my billing cycle:

Internet/MEdia Net
UNLIMITED
Used 123.64MB of Unlimited

Sorry didn't mean to hijack a Verizon thread.
