    The major applications are data only, some still allow you to do SMS. SMS is not as reliable as data. Whenever the device communications with the data network, data charges may apply and in some situations, applications must check the status of the data network and that may involve a charge. When sending/receiving a message it hits the data usage dude.

    The best answer is to get an unlimited data plan.
