Does it cost the person who recieves a text if i send it through ola.com.co?

Does anyone know if it charges someones cell phone if i send them a text massage using ola.com.co? I have been sending someone like 4 text messages a day and that thought never popped into my head? The person didnt know if it was charging him either

Yes, they charge All cell providers in CO charge the recipient of a text message. I think it's 400 pesos or something like that.

Charges They do charge if you are sending from internet, they do not charge if you are sending from another mobile which already charges you for the service.

OMG why doesnt it tell you that when you send it? does it just assume you know? I have probably sent around 50 text messages to someone in the past 2 weeks.

Correction 300 per msg, PLUS 16% tax, so 348 pesos total PER MSG.
