Starting on Monday, January 28th. Remind will no longer be sending remind texts to Verizon Wireless customers. Verizon is accusing Remind of sending spam over their text, in which, they’re charging Remind additional fees. Remind says “The fee will increase our cost of supporting text messaging to at least 11 times our cost-forcing us to end free Remind text messaging for more than 7 million students, parents, and educators who have Verizon Wireless as their carrier.”
Although, you can still get the app for Remind which is highly recommended if you have the Verizon Wireless network. If you would like to help save Remind, you can either call them at 1-800-922-0204 and ask them to reverse the fee or use the hashtag #ReverseTheFee.
