    No really it's fine, I don't have one because no one ever texts me (been married for practically 20 years lol). If I get enough to justify it I'll add it. But at .25 a pop I'd need at least 20 or so a month to justify it... until then I'm ahead of the game and still would like to get them.

    Okay, kettle.

    Thank God for BBIM or you'd cost me a fortune in text messages.

    It's AT&T. I'm just going from memory since it hasn't been an issue for years. I think it's .10 per text over your plan, or .25 if you don't have one at all. Like I said earlier, my contract is like 5 years old now so it doesn't really have modern terms. But, as long as I stay within my plan, I bet my bill is less than most of you. I have two phones on it, my daughter has unlimited text and I pay $83 a month like clockwork.

    Only problem is now I'm eating up my rollover minutes using it for business now. Hasn't cost me yet, but it will start to soon enough. Whoever has AT&T let me know since I can talk to you free and more apt to pick up the phone lol.

    I've got AT&T, and unlimited minutes to anyone, anywhere, with any phone.

    Hence my new nickname from Al, Mr. 10,000

    Ok well here's a warning in advance. Now that I'm home, I see I got some mail from my insurance company. They are requesting my fuel tax filings for last quarter.

    This could be a problem down the road. I just started so there is nothing to show them, but after June it could be an issue. I'm not sure what my rights are yet in this matter, but I guess if they had an automatic right to it they would just get it from IFTA. If they are depending on getting it from me, it will be what they need to see. I've learned that everyone gets what they ask for and life moves on much easier.

    You really should consider (and IIRC you already are) broadening your insurance coverage.

    Shoot, the info you've posted on this forum could be used against you in a court of law should it come to that.

    I'm not worried. I don't plan to file a false return to the gov. I could care less if a private corporation is unhappy with what they read. There are other customers and other insurers.
