And fails miserable! 🤣

In an attempt to break a world record 2 guys decide they will try to send the most text messages in a month. The amount they have to beat is 182,000 set by someone in India. Both thought because they had unlimited text they would not be charged! 😲 But the guy who had t-mobile was charged $26,000.

The same way you meant to put "I" and not "i"? Oh, what about "there" which should be "their"?

You certainly, showed them.

I'm just pointing out that you shouldn't try to be a bigger a$s to another person when you're just as bad as the prior. I'm not perfect and can accept it.

I was not being a a$$, i was making joke because he was making phone of the op's butchery of the English language and he himself made a mistake using the English language. I put my two cents in and then you tried to make me look foolish when you obviously are just as bad.

I didn't look just as bad and judging from your last post it didn't help you at all.

Ummm false...with any of Sprint's unlimited plans, everything is unlimited. The connection cards have a 5 gig cap like with every carrier, but at no time are they advertised as unlimited in any way. If you have unlimited data or texting with sprint, its UNLIMITED.

This thread has absolutely nothing to do with Sprint's CDMA products nor services DiamondPro. More than likely, this thread would have best been posted in the T Mobile carrier section thread.

Was that computers can not read unlimited or infinity. It has to have a real number. So if they were on the unlimited plan T-Mobile's billing system was probably set to a real number like 99,999 not thinking anyone would go over that amount in a month. Thus creating overages. Or they were probably not set up correctly on the plan.

Correct this is also how Sprint set there unlimited text. So technically anyone using more than 99,999 text could be billed overage in error.
