Texts From Our Landline

Our landline phone supports SMS texting.

Are these included in our Unlimited Phone & Mobile Calls plan?

Hi @caravanj,

SMS messages aren't included in any of our packages and cost 12p per text and do not incur a set-up fee.

@BenB

Thanks,

Does it cost to receive an SMS text?

This could mean all the difference between either 12p or 24p for sent & received texts just saying 'Test'.

Lol Funny

Hi @caravanj

Thanks for getting back to me.

It doesn't cost to receive a text only to send one.

Re: Texts From Our Landline

When I was BT for phone service you had to specifically register your line to be SMS enabled; presume not necessary with PN?Huh

(Despite doing that BT always sent as a horrible robo type speak message Sad   )

No we didn't register, we bought some BT8500 call blocker phones wich had the text facility so a couple of days ago we sent a text from the landline & a text to the landline which both worked.
