MMS — multimedia messaging service — allows you to send pictures and other media via text, as well as send longer texts. This likely only happens when you send a particularly long group text message. When you disable SMS, the iMessage system automatically takes over, and sends and receives messages using your cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.
Open the spam text message via the Messages app. Tap Details on the top-right. This will mute notifications but you will continue receiving text messages. Tap the MMS Messaging switch to turn on or off. Tap the Group Messaging switch to turn on or off. Group messages sent as MMS use data. Tap and hold the conversation you want to mute. If MMS is turned on then the problem is likely with your carrier. How to Block a Group Text.
To block a group text on your iPhone, open the Messages app, and select the group text you want to block. Then tap the info button and turn on Leave Conversation. As long as there are other people minimum of three in the group text, members can leave a group text any time they want.
Just use Messages as you normally would. AndroidGo to the main screen of your messaging app and tap the menu icon or menu key on the bottom of the phone ; then tap Settings. Open Settings on your iPhone. Tap Messages. If an iMessage, did you block the number, or the Apple ID. If you just added the number, then it may be coming from the Apple ID. If you blocked the contact, make sure it includes the number and caller ID. Apple ID would work for iMessage.
If they had, you wouldn't be getting any SMS messages. Does your bill break down messages by sent and received? Is that how you know that you're being billed for messages sent?

It seems that this setting has an effect only if there is a connectivity problem between the iMessage server and the recipient, not if there is a connectivity problem between the sender and the iMessage server. I have reported this to Apple, but all they could suggest was Reset Network Settings, which you say you've already tried. Nov 11, AM. Feb 24, PM in response to lenkun In response to lenkun.
I'm considering cancelling my unlimited family texting and making the selections you've suggested as I plan to start using an app called Viber.
It's free and works over 3g or wifi but you have to interact with another Viber user. Feb 24, PM. Feb 23, AM in response to lenkun In response to lenkun. Two and half years later this part is still impossible whilst on a cellular network, correct?

So, naturally, when these charges began showing up on my bill after the recent upgrade to iPhone 6 for both lines, I was a bit confused. The first month was only two message charges. I double-checked both iPhones to ensure that the magic little Send as SMS button had not been somehow re-positioned.
I called Verizon and explained to them that I did not use SMS at all and that I had confirmed that the aforementioned button was properly set. This got me considerably more worked up. I rechecked both iPhones again. Today, I had the time to log in to the Verizon portal and poke around a bit. I was at it for about five minutes when I happened upon a remote page that held the Verizon end of the magic checkbox Block Messaging , which dutifully and somewhat counterintuitively explains that ONLY SMS messaging Video, Text and Picture will be blocked, even though the ominous feature name conveys a rather confusing totality.
Once I rechecked this box, I called Verizon and explained what I had found. I also voiced my suspicion that this likely happened during the iPhone 6 upgrade process because it was after that when the problem began. The phone rep went and immediately processed a CR for the charges and informed me that the taxes will be computed off of the bill next month.
As a final test, I waited about 10 minutes and attempted to send a response into the Group Chat that seems to have been responsible for this incident and it no longer works. Problem solved. I do believe this does point out either 1 a bug; or 2 an incomplete implementation of turning off 'Send as SMS'.

To my knowledge there is not a readily available option to prevent outgoing SMS completely on the iPhone. You may have to disable outgoing SMS from your number with your carrier if they happen to support that option. Dec 10, PM. Apr 3, AM in response to gentoo In response to gentoo. In your group chat, you might have been sending an MMS rather than an iMessage. This happens if some people in the group chat aren't using iMessage, as per the Android phone in the group you mention.
Apple's implementation of iMessage is quite confusing, because in a conversation when sending multimedia, Messages can revert to sending an MMS instead of an iMessage when the connection is weak; but to prevent this in a conversation, you need to ensure 'Send as SMS' is off, as opposed to ensuring 'MMS Messaging' is off for group chats. This means that they start using WhatsApp to send all of their multimedia, and eventually it becomes their default messaging app, which is a shame.
It's too confusing for the simple folk who just want to pick up their iPhones and start texting without incurring unexpected charges. Apr 3, AM.
