PSA: Beware using txting to post to LJ
From ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shrijani, via whyaduck:
I use the TxtLJ function to make posts here using my Verizon cell phone. I used it for months with no problems.
For the June billing cycle, I was getting charged "premium messaging" for each and every one of those simple little SMS's to 89855.
FIVE FREAKIN' BUCKS A POST.
You'd better believe that I have the mother of all support requests in with LJ.
But in the meantime - beware.
Original post is here.
I don't use my phone to post to LJ, and I don't use Verizon, so I can't say if this is an isolated incident. But check your statements, and confirm your phone contracts.
Over and out.
