Need help to test danish sms gateway in England??

BechDenmark

Hi I'm working for a danish company, which is expanding to England.. therefore I'm looking for some volunteers, who would allow me to send them a text message, so that we can get our smsgateway working in England..

MrRincewind

so you work for an expanding company moving into european fields and you need to ask here for volunteers to test your sms gateway, does`nt sound the least bit suspicious from someone with a single post, quick sign me up first.

There are often free SIM card offers, but the rest of the time they are only 50p or £1 - and that is retail

Or I believe you can get them in bulk on eBay for pennies each

Perhaps your firm could afford to buy themselves a couple of hundred out of the research budget

Well as we are based in Denmark makes us a part of the european community right... And there are no cause for you to be suspicious in any way, as we just want somebody who lives in England to test if our danish based sms gateway is working in England...

Well, you've given no identity for yourself, and no information about protecting people on usage or privacy issues, and there are other services notorious for sending people chargeable messages against their will.

So it would not be surprising if members here were rather sceptical about the professionalism of an outfit that seems to be unable to take enough initiative to obtain free or very cheap SIM cards from the networks and undertake all of its testing privately, which would seem to more efficient in getting speedy feedback anyway.

MrRincewind

So would you yourself not be suspicious of some one coming onto a forum with their first post asking for semi private information to be used by a multi national company for business research, and as redux himself states surely you must have some kind of research department budget that would enable you to do this in house,

Another point unless you are planning your own network you must be planning on being virtual network when you move into the UK, So therefore the network you use should be able to assist you with this project,

Just a couple of reasons why i was so sceptical of your request for assitance, I`d love to be proved wrong and i`d be more than happy to apologise if this should happen

And what do you have against the rest of the UK?
