    Was wondering if anyone know if there is any apps you can download that dont charge for msgs if sent over data. Essentially emailing form my phone to a mobile number. I'm limited to 200 texts with my plan and don't really want to pay for extra texts when i have so many unused minutes!

    Thanks in advance

    Hi you can use the Cabbage app which allows you to use your free webtexts from your network. All your charged for is data to send the web texts. Another option is Whatsapp but the person your sending to needs whatsapp app also but the texts are free again only data is used.
    Hope this helps!

    Cabbage is great, I've been using it a while to send my free web texts.
    Tells you how many you have left each month too.

    Text messages are tiny. Theyd only be a few bytes
