50p for what?
Messaging might be the great common denominator of mobile devices, but it does seem fraught with problems for A2P (Application To Person) messages. I was looking at a propery information service leaflet that I found in a coffee shop, with SMS to short code information on rental accomodation. So I sent off a message, carefully checking code and message.
Nothing. That was about an hour ago, so I’m sure I’ve been charged and not received anything.
However their website fired up on my phone immediately and, despite a huge list of check boxes that appeared dynamically in the page making it a loooong scroll down to the Search button, it worked.
So why are people so obsessed with messaging?
