February 23, 2007 - Easter is approaching fast and holiday makers using their mobile phones abroad to send text messages will again be the goose laying the golden egg for mobile phone companies in the UK. The increasing enthusiasm for SMS texting does not stop on holiday.
http://www.10pText.co.uk uses the mobile Internet to send SMS text messages at a reduced rate to international destinations.
The average price charged by UK mobile service providers like Virgin for sending SMS from the UK to other countries is 35p. The cost to send a text message from a European country back to the UK is typically 50p.
http://www.10pText.co.uk is easy to use.
SMS messages are sent from the phone of the sender over the Internet into the recipient’s mobile phone inbox.
45.6 million unique users were recorded as having used their phones for downloads and browsing the mobile Internet in the UK throughout October, November and December last year.
“The complexity of mobile phone plans, packages and bundles prevents consumers from realising the steep cost of international SMS texting and act as a smokescreen,” says Bernadette Ebene Associate of 10pText.co.uk.
