I have just started my contract ( 2days ago) and i send a couple of messages to family letting them know my new number and included a smiley in the message.   Today i checked my o2 app and found i had been charged 33pence for each message.  But i have unlimited calls and text.  So i called o2 costumer services to find out wot was going on.   This is wot i was told..... because i included an emoction in my messages O2 ARE CHARGING ME 33PENCE A MESSAGE BECAUSE AN EMOCTION IS CLASSED A PICTURE MESSAGE (MMS).   WOT A JOKE!  i have nerver come across this with any other network. I was with three and was never charged for sending an emoction in a text message.  Ive only been with o2 for a short while.  Think i made a mistake joining o2

You do still have that option. it depends on how strong you feel about it and in the end, it's your decision.

Which is enough on some handsets to convert to mms.
More than 5 will convert I think.
