This is easy to use and much more cost effective alternative to having a dedicated short code.
Sign up for Silver or Gold account, and we will assign free virtual mobile phone number to your account. This number can be used as caller ID when you send SMS messages. Your recipients will be able to reply to your SMS messages and our system will receive these SMS replies, or - in fact - all SMS messages delivered to your number.

Text To Speech Messaging
Text to Speech (TTS) option
included in every mothly plan, helps to convert text message to high quality voice,
and deliver it to land line phones. This option is very useful for all kinds of alerts,
when you want to push out your message quickly and without thinking what kind of receiver(s)
(sms capable cell phone or voice-only capable phone) are we dealing with.
The whole process is totally transparent to the user.
For both:
Voice or
Text-to-Speech messages,
it is possible to send voice or TTS message, that would ask
the recipient to make a choice by pressing a number on the dial.
For instance a car serviceman wants to ask if his customers are happy:
'Hello, this is Citroen Service in Smallville. You visited us last week.
We would like to know if you were happy with the service we have provided.
Press 1 if you were happy, or press 2 if you were not. Press 9 to repeat this message.'
The recipient would listen to the message, and then press 1, or 2. The number pressed will later show up in the message status, so it will be easy for the sender to see and handle recipient's response.
