Re: [Verizon] Missing SMS delivery confirmation

said by obeythelaw See Profile :

this is really annoying. what would the reason be for doing it? fortunately, it still works for mms and for blackberry messenger.
It will effectively cut the number of 1kb text messages in half so if the users send a billion a year, the system was sending a response back to your phone making it 2 billion.
They claim it will save them $58 million in "costs".

I believe that sending PIN messages from BB to BB will still show the Delivery receipt since that is a Blackberry feature but it applies only to people who have Blackberries.

I'm only the messenger here......

Re: [Verizon] Missing SMS delivery confirmation

I wonder how many extra "Hey, did you get my text?" messages will replace the delivery notification? Or the actual voice call that needs to take place (no charge to the customer) vs a quick text? Maybe it won't save anything.

Today I also just received 1 of my 2 Verizon wireless bills. There's no notification whatsoever in it. The customer service rep I chatted with online this morning indicated that since 9/9, people have begun being notified. I know I haven't received any such notification.
