BT Aqua – Edition 3 - 24.04.07 – 8131
Welcome to the BT text messaging Service on your BT Aqua.
Your BT Aqua can send and receive text messages from
participating mobile networks and compatible landline
telephones in the UK.
The fixed line text service is provided under BT’s terms and
conditions for telephone service. These can be found by
visiting the BT.com website at:
http://www.bt.com/terms/tor.htm
Subscribe to the text messaging service
When you send your first text message from your BT Aqua you
will automatically be registered for the service.
On receipt of your first text through the service, the system
will send you a welcome text message back. You may also
register by sending the word ‘Register’ to 00000 upon which
you will receive a confirmation message.
Cost of the fixed line service
There is no subscription charge (other than the subscription to
Caller Display). Visit the BT.com website (www.bt.com) to find
out how much it costs to send a text message (depends upon
your call package).
IMPORTANT
You must subscribe to your Network
Provider’s Caller Display service so that
you can use text messaging and you must
not withhold your telephone number.
A quarterly fee may be payable, please
contact your network provider for
more details.
You may also send messages to landline
phones that are NOT text compatible.
Messages to non-compatible lines will
be connected to voice text and
delivered in spoken words to the
telephone as a call. Please note that
the conversion can translate common
abbreviations and smileys etc, but to
ensure maximum clarity of message
delivery, abbreviations etc should be
used sparingly.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047 or email [email protected]
