My daughter has a contract phone with camera etc.

She get 200 mins and 200 texts per month.

What about picture messages, what are these counted as.

She went on a shopping trip and took photos of all the items she liked then sent photo messages to her mum.

Will this be extras on the bill....

Sorry for dumb question.

    Depends on the contract and supplier. On my O2 contract a picture message is three standard text messages.

    I think it's 4 now on O2, at least on recent contracts. At least they are included though - Vodafone is extra every time :(

    So answer to OP is....it depends on who you're with.

    I've got a data bundle on Vodafone so use Shozu to email pics to people, or upload to Flickr. Free then.
