Thread: i have att and got the texting package. It says IM is included but i am

unsure if i can use it? i don't have a data package i just want to know if i can use it or not. In my package it says i have text, mms, IM.

i can not use any data at all!

yes!

yes!

you should try to send a text message and see if it goes through

I used to work for them... if only I could remember. I'm almost positive that IMs need a data plan, but it may have changed. If it said that on the documentation, you may want to call the company and ask a representative. Trusting someone here may end up in a huge bill if the answerer is wrong.

Yes, you can use the IM and not be charged for data IF you use the Built-In IMing Programs. such as AIM MSN YAHOO!.
like dont use the web to go to the messengers.
and u wont be charged :]
