Text Message Coverage?

Emy H.

Hi, when I'm on the Bell website looking at plans under Text it says "Unlimited Canada-wide text, video and picture messages"
Does this apply for Fizz too when you check unlimited texts?

Emy if you have the canada plan yes.
As long as you're physically within your coverage area (in your case within Canada), you can text to any number (including Canada, USA and International numbers).

Video and picture messages may require data. https://community.fizz.ca/questions/2364325-mms-takes-sms-data

Depending on the features that you choose on your rate plan. As long as you are within your coverage area (e.g Quebec, Canada or Canada/US) and you choose SMS, you should be able to send SMS. Please keep in mind that MMS requires you a data connection (a data plan) in order to send picture or videos through SMS.
Regarding International SMS, it’s included if you choose the SMS feature in your rate plan. Confirmed by Fizz on this post https://communaute.fizz.ca/questions/1818550-with-canada-coverage-can-i-send-sms-mms-to-any-country

Emy,
Yes, it is included on all coverage plan but
Video and picture text need a plan with data (to receive it and to send).
