Hi

Which add-on would allow me to send Multi media messages (MMS) by text (SMS)?

 

Or next time I change my phone plan, is there one which includes MMS messages? 

 

Thanks 

Amy

Hi there ​@Mimi, we don’t offer an add-on for MMS messages I’m afraid.

 

All contacts allow MMS messages however, you just need to simply enable premium features via the iD Mobile app/website, and also change your bill cap to allow for the MMS messages to go through, and they cost 55p per message.

 

Thanks,

Tyler

Hi 

I too would like to know how to do this please can you explain it more? I am currently on android phone.

My bill cap is on the max allowance but I do not see the premium feature on the app.

Hi ​@Julieso,

 

You are able to read more about how out of plan services work by clicking here: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-support/call-charges.

 

Unfortunately, iD Mobile do not offer any bundles that allow free MMS messaging. MMS messages have a size limit of 295kb per message. If your MMS image exceeds 295kb, you'll incur charges for multiple MMS messages.

 

For example, sending an MMS image of 1mb would result in charges of either £1.20/£2.20, depending on when you joined or upgraded.
