Virgin Mobile Texting?

Question

Has anyone noticed that virgin mobile has a very long delay to when you receive texts or send them to people. Why does it do this? Is it the phone of the service?

Answer 1

Virgin Mobile runs off of sprint towers, so if your texting to someone outside their network, such as verizon, it may take longer to recieve or send the data.
