herkdrvr · **SMS Actually Working? -** 05-04-2007, 08:44

I was glad to see the new SMS rates and it almost sounded like they've made it more reliable. However, I've yet to get an SMS through to anyone. I haven't tried a lot, but the few times I've tried it just doesn't seem to work. Sent SMS to Verizon, China Unicom, and a german mobile number. So far no one's received my SMS.

I also notice I'm being charged for the SMS even if it doesn't go through. A support request on this issue got me a reply that said they credit back to my account if an SMS doesn't go through, but it can take up to 24 hours. I haven't actually checked this but I'm curious if it actually happens as they state.

Anyone share their experience or tip on getting these through?
