Why does my carrier see my texts as broken up into several small ones (<160 characters)?
I have an iPhone 5s on a prepaid plan (iOS is updated). I’m not much of a tech user obviously. I discovered that my outgoing texts are appearing to my carrier as several smaller ones. So I’m paying for multiple texts. For example, I sent a text of 306 characters that I thought would count as two texts. It showed up as 5 texts to my carrier, though it arrived as one complete message to the person who received it. The carrier says this is the fault of my phone software. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you.
