    I think MMS is for picture messaging only.

    If you want to send a video - best bet download to pc and then send by email or perhaps email on the web - but then you need mobile internet.

    I have sent a few video clips, it came out of my allowance but i'm not sure how many.
    So i assume its just the same as picture messaging at 4 texts each.

    Does it depend on the length of the video clip inorder to work out how many texts it uses up?

    Try it with 1 text and wait 24hrs and check your allowance.
    It came out of my allowance with no problem, worst that could happen be a charge for like 40p? (what is the charge anyway? :o)

    From what I remember on O2 PAYG an MMS was worth 3 SMS from your free allowance.
