IMPORTANT

You must subscribe to your Network Provider’s Caller Display service so that you can use text messaging and you must not withhold your telephone number. A quarterly fee may be payable, please contact your network provider for more details.

You may also send messages to landline phones that are NOT text compatible. Messages to non- compatible lines will be connected to voice text and delivered in spoken words to the telephone as a call. Please note that the conversion can translate common abbreviations and smileys etc, but to ensure maximum clarity of message delivery, abbreviations etc should be used sparingly.
