Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have an iphone SE using ios 9.3.1
I also have a sim only deal which includes unlimited texts
Recent texts are being sent as MMS and thus incurring charges.
Any advice to stop this?
iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.1
This may be carrier specific - but you can try
Settings - Messages - scroll down to SMS/MMS - toggle it to OFF
Do the messages have photos, videos, audio on them?

Thanks for your reply
there are no pictures or videos attached- just text
I'm going to speak to carrier about this too. This almost seems like a scam by them.

Did you try turning off the MMS Messaging option under Settings>Messages as ManSinha recommended?

Thanks for advice
Ill give a whirl
You are welcome
Please let us know how it turns out
Yes but i haven't yet tried to send a text. I want to speak to O2 first about their role in this.
Once again thanks

I have sorted things now with my carrier. They have waived charges for plain texts sent as MMS and I now understand what is going on. I have disabled MMS on the phone and I think that will stop this happening again.
Fingers crossed!
