I didn't think there were anything other than unlimited text plans nowadays either. In fact I'd rather text than use a messenger app since my data is not unlimited. Sending a picture via text (its actually MMS) uses data but that data is exempt from your data plan. Send the same pic via a messenger app and the data usage does count.
All that said I won't use any messaging app that is platform dependent--and that means no iMessage. Since just about everyone uses Facebook I use that if I want to use a messaging app.

The plan I have is a grandfathered plan and the vendor did a classic price straddle: I have 4GB of data with tethering but have to pay for SMS texts, and unlimited texts with 3GB of data would be about the same $. I prefer iMessage, it is a secure point to point transmission.
