Data plan turned off means no text messages?
I recently turned my son's data plan off because of consumption and he said that he could no longer get my texts unless he is connected to wifi. Is this true???

One other thing to consider is that MMS messages (picture & video messages) as well as some other apps like Visual Voice Mail will not work if cellular data is turned off. Just more reason for him to learn to better manage his resources.

I know Apple had a bug in the past, but I'm not duer if it has been fixed or not. In some cases, when a customer would turn-off iMessage, the Apple servers wouldn't update properly, and they would not get their messages via SMS. This didn't hit all customers, so ther eis a good chance that it wouldn't happen to him anyway.
