I send picture messages all the time which are included in my monthly allowance. This month I have been charged for three picture messages at 83p each I don’t understand what is different about these three messages. Please can someone explain? I am generally on Wi-Fi. How do you know if you’re sending an MMS message rather than a free message included with data?

You're phone will tell you below the message what type it is - you'll see SMS or MMS. MMS is MultMedia Service. Note the "service" basically means more charges.

In future use and IM provider to send these over internet - whatssapp, messenger, signal, MS teams, discord etc...
