E-mail didn't work, neither did web surfing, or messaging apps not on that list. Are those supposed to work in the Messaging package, or is it really only WhatsApp and the few other listed apps that are supported, with everything else being blocked?
To my understanding, the free messaging access is meant to only allow a few specific message-apps. So it is not about bandwith, it is about usage.
