Q. What is the cost for Picture & Video Messaging?

A. You are charged $0.30 for each message you send and receive unless you are on a Messaging package or a data package. When a single message is sent to multiple recipients, the sender is charged one message for each recipient and each recipient is charged for the message received.

Everyone pays to receive SMS and it's the same for MMS..
