Please can anyone let me know where I can send international texts online for free (especially to Mauritius and India where I have relatives). I dont mind if there is a site which charges a small fees. I hate tapping at my phone and typing texts as I'm so slow, so I could do with somewhere online to do this. Thanks in advance! :j

Thanks for that. I have sent a test text to my cousin in Mussoorie (the foothills of the Himalayas)!
Any ideas what site I can use to text to Mauritius?

DONT USE THAT SMS.AC SITE.
It is possibly the biggest scam in the world.. They say you get free texts but then send you premium rate texts that is a pain in the !!!!!! to opt out of.. I ended up spending £6.50 on premium rate texts for sending about 4 texts to NZ. It would have been cheaper to send the texts via my provider.

I have been with this company for years and have never had premium rate texts or any other texts sent to me. I have never had any problems, use them all the time. Many of my friends use them as well and, as far as I know have had no problems.0 -
TRUE, sent me loads too. u need to identify it on the site and stop it.0
