Welcome to the SMS Text Messaging service on your BT Paragon 500. The SMS Service is provided by BT.
Your BT Paragon 500 can send and receive messages to any mobile phone from participating mobile networks and compatible landline telephones in the UK.
The fixed line SMS service is provided under BT’s terms and conditions for telephone service. These can be found by visiting the BT.com website at: http://www.bt.com/terms/tor.htm
To subscribe to the SMS text messaging service
When you send your first SMS text message from your BT Paragon 500 you will automatically be registered for the service.
On receipt of your first SMS through the service, the system will send you a welcome SMS message back.
You may also register by sending the word Register to 00000 upon which you will receive a confirmation message.
Cost of the fixed line service
There is no subscription charge (other than the subscription to Caller Display). Visit the BT.com website (www.bt.com) to find out how much it costs to send a text message (depends upon your call package).
IMPORTANT
You must subscribe to your Network Provider’s Caller Display Service in order to use SMS text messaging.
A quarterly fee is payable. You must not have your telephone number withheld for this service to work.
You may also send messages to landline phones that are NOT SMS 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.
Some other network provider lines may not be compatible with this SMS service.
