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 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.
