Is that a trick question? :) IIRC Orange charges customers for receiving delivery reports. Does that count? -- con-con giffgaff: <http://www.spam-free.org.uk/giffgaff/>

Yes, think it is 10p for sending. Incoming are, I think, screened (shown if a number is already in the contacts list, they may be prompted if not). I'm getting 15 GB for 7.50/month though. Bought a PAYG Three SIM and that is a different kettle of fish - trying to register with Three (the user has to submit their phone number and last 6 digits off SIM) is giving a problem because their text messages to tell me the password are showing up in Chinese with dates of 2000-10-04 and random times. The PAYG SIM is displaying incoming texts from both unknown (in the contacts list) and known numbers. Will test the contract SIM later. |
