Which contract are you on my friend?

Even unlimited is subject to a fair use policy if I started slamming txts from my phone and sent a few thousand if expect a call asking if everything was ok haha.

Unlimited is a euphinism for an unspecified maximum.

Texts sit around 5000 as a theorotical limit.

Data is between 2-4Gb. Although I can find nothing to confirm this.

MMS and Video calls are included in the data allowance usually.

As far as I'm aware mms is separate and chargeable per message it is not included in data

I always thought Unlimited was 11,000. At least it used to be.

Differing amounts for P&G and monthly.

Figures stated through the community say 3000 texts P&G and 12000 texts pay monthly.

At the end of the day, why not just say the maximum amount then people will know where they stand and perhaps some sort of tally app. so you can manage your texts. If you are somehow able to use your limit, you really need a life.

Currently I am on Pay Monthly and have 20 MMS messages per month for free although this limit may have changed with newer tariffs. So that's £5 worth of MMS messages as they would normally cost 25p each. Using e-mail is more effective in this day and age anyway. My mail application allows me to send up to 1.2MB images rather than the standard 300K size.

O2's unlimited policy is that it is unlimited, providing that a) you're using it as a regular phone and not spam texting for example, and b) you're not using it to the extent that it causes other users not to be able to get access to the service.  Assuming that you're not doing either they very rarely step in.

Yes, it's better to use email for sending MMS now-it's included in your data allowance. I used to send MMs as text before O2 et al changed it, because I object strongly to being charged extra for MMS when on unlimited SMS, it's just a pain having to let friends know when there's an MMS email.
