FCC Lays Down 'Bill Shock' Proposal
The biggest thing the FCC is missing is
Sending a text message to someone isn't going to stop them from acquiring overages.
The carriers have prepaid plans and are now implementing prepaid data plans. With prepaid, customers can't have $1000 bills unexpectedely. This is a better alternative then sending a text message that may or may not do anything at all.
everyone in the u.s is becoming more conservative so hence the fact they recieve a text message they are going to notice more than taking the time out of thier "busy" (i say that in the most lamest of terms) days to check usage.. so getting a text or a call whatever they will do will let them know for sure..
checking usage of a phone is not someones top priority although they should..
but when it comes down to crunch time they will stop the overages or change thier plan so it will work better for them..
