Can I send a text message to a mobile from an internet connected computer and if so please let me have a link for this purpose. Many thanks. wendy

there's loads of sites where you can do this, the one I used to use is
www.hotspot.co.uk

Hi Mandy

Thanks but they require me to have a mobile phone and provider but I dont have either so cant fill in their online form. Are there any other providers which will accept a landline.

I have a friend who sends his txts via yahoo, i don't know how to do it and I think its costs as well

OK thanks, I'll look in to that. wendy

I've just sent a successful test message to my own mobile using...

http://www.cbfsms.com/

Send from pc, no registration needed...

You may like to experiment with it? :)

Thanks pseudonym, I'll give that a try because I've since been on tothe Yahoo site and couldnt find anything and at £3.50 it's a bit OTT when a call only costs 20p or whatever. All of my searches have come to nowt.

Hi Pseudonym. That's done the job brilliantly. As you can appreciate I dont think most people would take too kindly to that early morning alarm call on a Sunday morning. So that went down a treat. Mega thanks. wendy ;)

No Problem, Wendy... Glad you found it did the job ok... :)

I've bookmarked it for future reference. Grateful thanks. Wendy

Thanks from me too Pseudonym,I much prefer sending messages typed put properly and free :clap: :clap:

Pseudonym Its just done the job mega fantastic wonderful. Felt you'd like to know you've transformed my emotional state and I'm now a very happy bunny. Assuming you drink, I owe you a pint.

:clap: :clap: :clap: :D ;)

Wendy, Matsalleh... Thank you both for letting me know that I've created at least two Happy Bunnies! :)

All too many people on various forums that I've given useful information to that was requested in the past, haven't even bothered to say 'thanks'...

After a while, you begin to think "Why bother?"

It's good to see that the SF is different!

Hi Pseudonym

Although I dont know about Sheffield being the top computer centre in the country, I do believe the very little magic words "Please" and "Thank you" go a very long way to create peace. I am also very sorry you've had such poor experiences of other Forums; you're not alone. Although I've encountered the odd pratt on SF, my overall feeling so far is the people are genuine, helpful and friendly.

I've just discovered www.b4u.co.uk also do free text messages and their process is just sooooooooo much easier than http://www.cbfsms.com. All they require is a simple registration process and your real mobile phone number. As mine was either lost or stolen a couple of years ago, I'm using that and hope the people who've now got it get swamped with junk.
