This may sound odd, but I don't really know.
I've had an account for some time, accruing credit by running some adverts or other offers, or previously for receiving incoming calls to the number (this method no longer earns credit) but I have hardly made any outgoing calls.
I ought to try using it more, as there are plenty of minutes there now, and they also seem to offer 10 free minutes per week.
Textplus, I just installed its update to Nextplus, but haven't used it yet.
I also installed TextMe, for which I'd make roughly the same comments as UppTalk, it's there but hardly used. It kept changing the incoming number though, and receiving texts sent presumably by friends of previous holders of those numbers. I hope it would keep the same number if actually used much, but test this before you trust it. Also as I mentioned before its number range wasn't reachable from some UK networks, so I didn't test it much.
You can probably find several similar applications in the store for your phone type, and try them out one or two at a time.
