Default Alltel messaging packages

Does anyone know if messaging packages can be shared among phones within the same plan? For instance the 200 or 400 message packages?

No, the message packs are per subscriber/line

Bummer. I saw in the fine print it specified that unlimited and/or My Circle messaging was non-shareable. i was hoping to read between the lines that other messaging packages were perhaps shareable.

Thanks though.

If you have a smartchoice plan, the unlimited messaging is for all the lines. I think this is the only exception.

Right... Unlimited text messaging for all lines will come with the Smart Choice Plans, but any standalone add on package will be per line...

So that is to say if I am currently on the Smart Choice 500 Plan for 69.99. If I upgrade to the 89.99 plan that gives me 5 more My Circle #'s and unlimited messaging. All lines on my contract will have unlimited messaging?

Correct... Unlimited messaging (for all lines) begins on the 89.99 Smart Choice Plan, and as you said, you will also get 10 My Circle numbers...

Alrighty. Thanks for clarifying for me. I find Alltel's site a bit hard to understand/navigate at times. Especially when reviewing their plans.
