Out of minutes? You can still use your phone....
I am a Boostmobile customer with a Blackberry 8530. I am on the unlimited monthly plan of (after on time payments) $50 a month.
So here's my little bit of useful information that I one day found out after thinking I still had service but in fact didnt.......yet I kinda sorta still did.
I dont know if this also works for other carriers as far as them being able to do this but I do know that I was able to send and receive text/sms/mms messages to : Verizon/MetroPCS and Sprint customers.
Okay one day I didnt have the full amount in my account to replenish/top-up/refill my whole monthly amount so I ended up passing the deadline date and my service was "Interrupted" aka cut off for about 2 weeks.......oh nooooo!!!! 2 weeks without your phone is HORRIBLE!!!
I completely forgot about the "no service" thing and sent my fellow boostmobile customer friend a txt message
***REMEMBER PEOPLE MY SERVICE IS OFF SO I CANT MAKE CALLS RECEIVE CALLS REGULAR SMS OR BROWSE THE WEB****
after about 5 min I get a reply from my friend. Now if boostmobile customers notice you can send email/sms messages to [email protected].
Here's how I was able to still send sms and receive sms messages while my service was interrupted, I asked my friend what address did she see for my sms and thats where the "no service but still txt" thing came from. (I'm a computer/technology freak so it wasnt hard to figure out)
If you are sending a sms to another boostmobile customer you send it to [email protected]
ADD SMS AFTER THE @ THEN . (DOT) MYBOOSTMOBILE.COM
Now if you want others to be able to sms you (verizon/sprint/metropcs) then they have to send the sms to that same address format [email protected]
I know it works with verizon/sprint and metro because my family has those carriers so I sent them a txt to see if it worked and it did.
So go ahead if you're a boost customer or know another boost customer who's service is temporarily down, give it a try or send them this post and hopefully its not just my luck maybe its just what it is!!!
Until next time......L8tr!!!
