Web to SMS service?

Web to SMS service?

Post by Mountain Goat »

Can anyone suggest a reliable web-to-SMS service? Even 2-way if it doesn't cost the earth. We've just realised it could be really useful (especially when in remote Sussex where the mobile is up the spout anyway).

We use Orange, but got lost on the Orange website trying to research this feature, and I've lost patience with conventional texting.

There's stacks of stuff via Google, but it's the personal recommendation I was hoping for.

Thanks.

I'm using the latest Skype Beta, which has an SMS send,but not receive, facility. Actually works well for my purposes, which is usually just making sure people are reading the emails I'm sending them, rather than ignoring them as usual! :twisted:

Great, thanks, just what I need. Will give them a go. Problem with a lot of the services is that you have to buy 100 messages to use over a short time period, and I just want occasional ones.
