This is where text messages are sent to us to deliver to our customers. We provide VoIP numbers in mobile range (07) and in all UK area codes and some special services (e.g. 0800). However, at present, only mobile numbers, and a few of the numbers starting 01 and 02 can receive SMS messages properly from most networks. All of our 01, 02 and 03 numbers can receive SMS messages from Three properly, it seems. Attempts to send SMS messages to other geographic numbers (i.e. those starting 01 and 02) cause a call to be made and the SMS message read out by an automated system.
This is where text messages are sent to us to deliver to our customers. We'd strongly recommend only using our 07 numbers for SMS purposes as 01/02/03 numbers cannot be relied upon for incoming SMS.


Where SMS messages can be received properly, and this includes all cases where A&A customers send SMS messages through us, the SMS message will be sent on to you by your choice of means. This is based on the incoming SMS message setting in the control pages for your number.
