Sending a text message from a PC to a Mobile Phone.

[Anonymous]

Hi,

It is possible to send a text message from my PC to a Mobile Phone with O2?

I have heard that with some other Providers this can be done, but I don't know about O2.

If this can be done and O2 permit it, can you please advise me of how to set this up.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Ron.

Hi

That service was ended sometime ago unfortunately.

I use iMessage from my iPad to iPhones sometimes.

There are other websites available that allow you to send a text to mobiles. If you search Google you will find them.
I don't use any myself so I cannot recommend any one service in particular.

Forgot to add, if you are on a consumer contract you can install Tugo on your PC and send texts from there....

I have used Mighty Text which utilises your allowance. Sometimes handy especially when sending lengthy texts.

Does this mean they can read your text messages ?

A shame its only for Android Platforms.
