Texting a prepaid Verizon phone deduct from my 500 text minutes?

[smickledorf]

I have the unlimited verizon to verizon with 500 minutes to non verizon text plan. If i am texting a person with verizon prepaid phone does it deduct from my 500 minutes or is that considered verizon to verizon?

no, verizon wireless prepaid is considered m2m. mind you straight talk, page plus etc, ones that use verizon towers are not considered mobile to mobile

so pretty much verizon prepaid your okay none of your minutes would be used . i recommend the m2m feature on your phone under my verizon enter upto 3 numbers at tiem check if mobile to mobile

Usar esta herramienta to check the number(s) in question.  If they come up as IN NETWORK, then it will count as M2M.
