Free phone to phone mms?

Hi

I'm getting a bit frustrated that I have an "all inclusive" contract giving me an allowance for calls, texts and data, and yet I still have to pay 20p per mms. It doesn't take many for it to add up each month!

Does anyone know anyway of sending mms's free from a uk mobile to a uk mobile?

I know I can easily send free emails with photo attachments from my phone, but i don't think you can send this to a "normal" phone can you? (ie someone without a data / internet phone)

Thanks in advance

    O2 used to allow MMS's as part of the text bundle.

    Orange to a Multimedia package but generally MMS's are not included. If you have a BB, iPhone or Android then there's WhatsApp but is pretty good actually.. but obviously not available to "generic" phone.
    If I've help in anyway, please remember to thank me :-)

    Are you sure they arent picture mails? its an MMS that you send to an email address instead of a phone number, you compose them in the same way as an MMS but instead of typing a number in to the send to field you type an email address

    If they are picture mails and you have been sending normal MMS then you would be getting charged their standard MMS rate :)
