Need help with texts

Ok so I have virgin mobile and about 2hours ago my phone randomly stopped recieving texts. The battery was on low so I thought i should charge it and when I did still nothing happened. So i get on facebook chat and AIM and tell people to txt me and they said that they sent but I never got them. I can send texts and everything but I can't recieve them.

Has anyone ever had this happen and can offer some advice?

I have tried restarting it, restoring it, and taking out the battery

and I called their customer service but it fucking blows and i could never get through to a real person

+karma to all help

i dont know what virgin mobile is like, but maybe, using what the person above me stated,  t-mobile has it, or your plan has it, so that once you;ve used up all the texts for out of service, instead of charging you a shtload for receiving texts that you might not want, they just dont let you get them

well i was giving reason to why if that is the case, that he ran over his limit like the 200 messages they give you or something

^yes

^^but sending texts is what costs $$$ not recieving, plus they wouldnt stop u cause they would want to charge u more for overages

^^^radioshack prbly wont go to a virgin mobile store, whenever i have a prblm with my phone(verizon) i just go to the store and they usually replaced it for free or took a bunch of cash off an upgrade. just explain whats wrong and if they cant fix it then they will prbly replace it, thats how most ppl at the stores do it, not just for verizon but for other brands too

wrong for sprint it cost 10 cents sending/recieving texts after you go over texting depending on how many texts you have in your plan. Say you have 500 monthly texts then the recieved texts count as well. Yeah bone me in the ass cuz that shits gay!
