At verizon blackberry phone Internet connection is free it is already part of the monthly plan, but since text and call have been separated in different payment you can cut the text option and only use the calls and use your internet connection to text to other phone provider.

Back to free internet connection; In verizon blackberry phone since the Internet connection is free you can cut your text plan and use your phone internet connection to chat or text to someone else who are using different phone and provider. How it works?

To augment your tips for lowering texting costs, I thought I'd mention that I work in the consumer advocacy division of the company Validas, where we electronically audit and subsequently reduce the average cell bill by 22 percent through our website, http://www.fixmycellbill.com. Put simply, Validas guards against frivolous and unnecessary charges that inflate your cell bill more than it should be for your usage. You can find out for free if fixmycellbill.com can modify your plan to better suit your needs by going to the website.

For more info, check out Validas in the national news media, most recently on Fox News at http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/consumer/conlaw/lower_cell_phone_bills_072409 .

Good luck to everyone on further reducing those wireless costs.
