I was just curious, does it cost anyone to send txt messages from msn messenger?
e.g. The reciever or the sender?
Here it says you pay for the messages you send and receive.
It doesn’t cost money to send a message from your computer to a cell phone, but the reciever will likely have to pay to recieve the message. It only costs money to send and recieve from a cell phone, there is no way to charge you if you send a message from your home computer.
You have to buy credit in advance to send a text message from MSN to a mobile – it works out at about 10p so about the same as sending from a phone. The same goes for sending a text from a mobile to MSN. You can buy credit in varying amounts, but of course in the UK at the moment, that particular feature is not working/has been withdrawn/was never there (depending on which technical support person replies to your question!

The cost to the recipient depends on their mobile plan. I use Cingular “Blue” (formerly AT&T Wireless) and all incoming text messages are free. I only have to pay to send a text message FROM my mobile phone.
As Shifter noted, it doesn’t cost you anything to send a text message from a computer to a mobile phone.
