Here's a little further information regarding Text Messaging:
Message = the full message that is sent out, these are counted as a single message.
βMessage unit = An SMS is broken down by the length of characters, once a message reaches 160 characters it will count as two message units (whilst still being a single message). This is further multiplied the longer the message goes.
In regards to the character count the methodology of counting message units is based on the global SMS protocol itself, where a single message unit is considered to be 160 characters. A message greater than 160 characters will then be counted as multiple message units as per the message length. The SMS protocol does have a theoretical character limit of 39,015 characters. For more information about the SMS protocol message length structure, please refer to this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS#Message_size
Therefore please take into consideration the amount of SMS' that will be charged based on the following character lengths:
1 SMS = 160 characters
2 SMS = 306 characters
3 SMS = 459 characters
4 SMS = 612 characters
