Text messages cannot exceed 160 characters, including the sender’s callback number and the destination number/email address. Some phone models support a higher character limit and enhanced messaging features, which the message recipient may not be able to view if their service provider or phone does not support them. Picture and Video Messaging is subject to the Use Agreement posted at vzwpix.com. Canceling a picture or video message after pressing SEND may result in messages sent with only partial content. You can control receipt of picture and video messages using your phone’s “prompt mode” feature.
Premium Text Messaging Programs
Parents and Account Holders: Note that users on an account may directly access text and premium text message programs and incur charges. If you do not want a user on your account to access such content, or feel that certain material is inappropriate, you may block text messaging. These programs are sponsored by third parties and identified by unique five- or six-digit numbers (“short codes”). Programs and opt-in requirements vary. Standard messaging charges apply to all messages sent and received via short codes. Some programs also charge additional premium fees ("Premium Programs"), the amount and billing frequency of which will be disclosed at time of opt-in and billed on your Verizon Wireless bill. To opt in, send a text message to the applicable short code and follow any instructions. To opt out at any time, send the words CANCEL, END, QUIT, STOP or UNSUBSCRIBE to the applicable short code. To get more information, including contact details for the third-party sponsor, send the word HELP to the applicable short code. Some campaigns may be subject to additional terms and conditions.
