    cbf seems to have been down all the time yesterday, and the worst of it is that you dont find out til the end of the process that the message cant be sent.

    cbfsms only works every 10th minute of an hour for e.g. if ur txting around 9pm u have to txt at 9.10, 9.20 etc...u cannot let it go onto 9.11, or 9.21, because then it wil not go through, there is also a icon for system status, which lets u kno if the txt servers workin, bt now i kno as its every 10 mins. you should keep the txt ready, and as soon as it goes to the tenth min, send it! it is reliable, but annoying you have to wait..

    phreakyphonez aint sending to orange, works perfect to o2 :)
    swag works soemtimes n sometimes dont!
