[Announcement] BIG NEWS: You can now text shortcodes! 🎉
As I understand, those text numbers are premium numbers and Smarty does not support sending messages to them.
The other issue I can see is that you do not have a monthly bill where the cost of those messages can be charged to you - you pay a fixed monthly sum for your plan.
I was also wanting to do this.
I do have a monthly bill.
If the answer above applies to me, I will look for a new service provider.
You don't have a monthly credit bill - Smarty users buy fixed plans and top-ups.
Currently the system does not support sending text messages to premium numbers.
What's the future plan for adding competition numbers please.
SMARTY don't support messages to short-code numbers NeilAel_1900794, nor do they appear to have any plans to do so.
Most competitions use a short-code number, so being with SMARTY excludes you entering them using your phone - most will have an online entry option, which is less convenient though.
I guess, if using your mobile to enter competitions is important, join a mobile network that supports use of short-code numbers. Good luck NeilAel_1900794 🍀
