It's not true. Someone I work with sends me texts. We're both with ATT. I declined even the basic text plan when I bought my iPhone this August. I get charged .20 each time I receive one of this co-worker's messages. Never anything important either. I've told him about these charges and, asked him not to text me. I still get occasional texts though from him.
I had wondered if I could block all texts. I know Apple doesn't allow me to delete their SMS Text App (or, any other Apple installed App; I've tried, I can't do it). I'll have to stop by an ATT store and see if they can put a text message block on my line. I don't mind getting the rare free text from Apple or ATT but, paying to get someone's BS is another story.

I wasn't aware of that. How sure are you?
Sorry, I think that's not true.

FYI
I think texting to and from another AT&T customer is free.
