We have a plan on one of the phones that includes 250 texts per month. 155 were used during the billing period, but we got charged about $5 under 'billed
off peak'. I don't speak this language, can someone explain that to me?
WTF is a 'billed off peak' text message?

I would call them to be sure, but off peak usually means when your minutes aren't free. Like, when you use your phone before 9 or whenever your free
minutes start. They must do the texts like they do the minutes, so you may have to text after 9 or whatever your time is. I would call them

But the thing is I know it's not like that. We're all on the same family plan and I get 750 texts and I text all day everyday and have never been
charged for anything like that. My mother and sister get the same 250 package as the 4th phone and haven't been charged like that either!

Off peak is usually when the cell phone carriers' offices close and everything is discounted. I'm not sure why you were charged, though.
