BEDMINSTER, NJ — Love is in the air on Valentine's Day, and it's also on the Verizon Wireless network. Last year, star-crossed lovers apparently heated up Verizon Wireless's nationwide network by sending 20 percent more TXT Messages on Valentine's Day than any other day in February.
This Feb. 14, lovebirds are expected to heat up the Verizon Wireless network once again sending short messages to stay in touch with their sweetheart, or to profess their affection, including the tried and true "I LUV U", "U R MINE", "I M URS", and "XXOO".
And while Valentine's Day may be a popular day for sugary TXT Messages, it isn't the only day Verizon Wireless customers send TXT Messages. In the last three months of 2005 alone, Verizon Wireless customers sent and received an industry-leading 7.4 billion text messages on the company's nationwide network more than any other U.S. wireless carrier.
Customers can pay as they go for TXT Messaging, which is just 10 cents for each TXT Message sent or received, or they can select from bundled packages, which include Picture and Video Messaging that begin at $10/month.
