DALLAS-MetroPCS Inc., which provides flat-rate unlimited local calling service in Atlanta, Miami, San Francisco and Sacramento, Calif., expanded its text messaging service offering to provide nationwide interoperability and introduced changes to its long-distance service plans.

The carrier’s text messaging service now allows customers to send and receive unlimited text messages to any wireless customer in the United States for $3 per month.

MetroPCS also introduced three long-distance packages providing customers with three hours of long-distance calling for $3 per month, five hours for $5 per month and 10 hours for $10 per month.
