Incoming text messages will cost for Bell and Telus clients without bundle THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO – Bell Mobility (TSX: BCE) and Telus Mobility (TSX: T) will start charging wireless customers that do not subscribe to a text message bundle as part of their calling plan 15 cents per incoming text message later this summer. Bell customers will start paying the new charge on Aug. 8, while Telus customers will not see the new charge until Aug. 24. Previously incoming text messages were free. Wireless users who subscribe to a text message bundle as part of their calling plan will not be affected by the change, both companies said Tuesday. Rogers Wireless (TSX: RCI.B) does not currently charge for incoming text messages.
