[Announcement] BIG NEWS: You can now text shortcodes! 🎉
Hi I gather from a few other posts that these are not possible at the moment!
I found this in some information blurb from SMARTY -
" At some point you'll be able to send other kinds of messages which will be chargeable. This will include premium-rate texts and short-codes, which are used for entering competitions, buying ringtones and voting on reality TV shows, and paying for parking."
As other people say they don't indicate when this will be available! I agree with the others that it should be no problem with a decent quality service!
I too, like some other people may well be switching to another provider which doesn't have this problem!
Why can’t I text cash register after buying £10 add on
This needs to be sorted, Smarty. I haven’t been able to enter a competition or reply to confirm a booking today. Why is it difficult?
Here is an article from Smarty: https://help.smarty.co.uk/en/articles/952515-are-all-texts-free-with-smarty-plans
They don't give a date when it will become available unfortunately.
If these are 'premium numbers', then Smarty does not allow users to send a text to them.
I just googled and saw a note from a week ago that smarty dont allow it at the moment but plan to soon. Hopefully that wont b long as I like to do the odd competition as well
Same response for well over a year.... frustrating that they do this!
I have the same problem for competitions is it in our settings or something?
