How to send free SMS from web?
Have any of you guys ever heard of https://www.FreebieSMS.co.uk ? It seems to send free SMS messages in the UK, but does anyone have any experience with them?

I was going to give this a prod and see what happens (I have a spare SIM and although the phone isn't here, I can see the text messages it receives). Then I read the terms at the bottom of the page and decided not to bother.
It appears sending is free....Standard text messages to
Orange,
O2 (UK),
T-Mobile,
Virgin Mobile,
Vodafone,
Guernsey,
Jersey,
Manx and
Three
are free to send, other networks cost 60p to send.
which is fine, but then it says....For Messages sent to
O2,
Orange,
3,
Vodafone,
Guernsey,
Jersey,
Manx and
T-Mobile networks,
the recipient will have the option to pay £5 to read the message.
which, if I am reading it right, means that the recipient pays £5 to receive your message (and if they refuse to pay, they don't get the message). The other option is this only applies to the Guernsey, Jersey and Manx networks, but with T-Mobile listed last I have no desire to test it.*I reserve the right to have an opinion, the right to change this opinion and the right to be wrong.*Hope that helps.
