Looks like Verizon subscribers who do not have a text package are going to see text message costs increase.

Starting March 1st a pay as you go text will cost 15 cents, a 5 cent increase.

Cingular, now AT&T, and Sprint have also increased their text message rates from 10 to 15 cents. T-Mobile has left their text message costs alone, still at 10 cents a message.

The idea is to get customers to sign up for a monthly plan of text messages instead of the pay as you go method. Hopefully you already have the message bundle, and have nothing to worry about.
