Question
Are my text messages saved on some database with my phone company? Is it possible for people (other than authorities), including employees of the cellular company, to access and read my past text messages? My SP is verizonwireless. Thankyou

Hello Tryke,

Nobody on the Customer service, Retail, Managerial side has access to any of your conversations that you have made. There is no records kept at all, all conversations are between you and your parties. There is no way for them to access that information either. They do however can keep track of which number you did send the message to at what time and date, they can also verify information of what time and from what number you recieved a text message. That is the only information they have access to without going to the technical side where authorities can be granted access to information. I hope that I have been of help to you if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your question.
