What do I get charged for?

I'm too afraid to touch my phone because I don't know what I'll get charged for. I'll accidently press some button and the phone will start connecting to t-zones, and I panic. Do I get charged for that? I won't even touch the games that came with the phone because I feel it's booby trapped somehow. I've already gotten a couple of text messages from people I don't know, and I can't figure out how to block them to stop future text messages. I'm honestly thinking about just turning the phone off and leaving it in my drawer, but I know I'll still get charged for text messaged spam. I'm really starting to regret getting a cellphone. I have the individual plan with the 1000 minutes. Please someone clarify what will incur charges.

That link there will tell you mostly what the charges are. There's no need to worry, unless if you're getting 50+ unwanted texts a month, in which case, you can call T-Mobile and ask them to block those numbers. Texts are $0.10 to send and $0.10 to receive so it shouldn't be too much to worry about.

As for the games, they're probably demos and don't cost you a thing to use unless if you decide to buy them, which are anywhere from $2.59-$7.49 for unlimited use.

There's nothing to be worried about. Go ahead. Use your phone. Play the demo. Do whatever you want. It probably won't increase your bill by that much. Enjoy your phone.

What he said^^^^ THe phone is your friend. Get used to using it and it will become like a blessing

You don't get charged for going to T-zones. It's just a place to download ring tones or games from T-mobile. You only pay if your'e going to buy a song or game. If you want T-web it's only $5.99 a month. As stated by char777 texts are $.10 to send or recieve or you can get up to 400 texts for $4.99. I'm a big Texter and rarely use that many a month. But if you need more I think unlimited Text is $14.99 a month. You just need to enjoy your phone.

Yes, there are three text plans: 400 messages for $4.99/month; 1000 messages for $9.99/month; and the unlimited which is $14.99/month.
