Re: Do you have to pay for incoming text messages

yes unless you have a plan I believe. It is annoying paying for advertising.

Unfortunately you can't turn off the text message feature. I just spoke to Verizon Wireless earlier this week since recently I've been having the same problem, and it certainly annoying paying 15 cents for each spam message you receive. Verizon recommended that I go to www.vtext.com and under the preferences feature on the left there are options to block all text messages that originate from the web.

Thank you! I just had this start this week, and it is usually in the middle of the night. No one else texts me from the web, so I might go ahead & do that.

Is this something new? It seems a lot of Verizon customers just had this start happening?

Why can't they turn off text messages? I know that other cell phone companies will do it for you. That's really irritating.
