Roaming charges in Ontario, Canada???

Question

I have a rogers phone and would like to know if i have to pay roaming charges to txt someone outside of the area i live in ?

someone told me that you can txt anywhere in canada or anywhere in ontario without paying any extra.. something like that. is that true?

Answer 1

Yes, that is true.  If you have a text messaging package, then your included text messages will allow you to text anywhere in Canada.  If you don't have a plan, then it costs $0.15 per text message regardless of where you are sending to in Canada.

Answer 2

yes it is true as long as you have a texting package, there is no roaming charges per say in Canada either if you call anywhere in Canada from anywhere in Canada it will always be 35 cents a minute. If you have a long distance package or My5 Canada Wide it will cover under that.

In Canada without a text package it is 15 cents per text, free to receive with rogers.
