FishText - Cheap SMS/Text to Overseas Mobile

Hello Again,

The cost of texting overseas mobile is around 20p from your mobile. Texting oversea is not included in your mobile bundle and you have to pay everytime you send your text. But if your mobile can download software from the internet, you can use FishText to send your SMS to overseas mobile. Its way much cheaper compare to texting directly from your mobile. For example, to send a text to Malaysia will cost around 20p through Vodafone but using FishText, it only cost 1.3p. The good thing about FishText is your overseas contact will receive your text as if it is from your mobile and they can reply to it as normal. All reply will go to your mobile inbox as normal too. The only thing that is not very good about FishText is it need internet connection to send your text, so if you don't have free internet bundle for your phone, you will need to pay extra for your internet. But if you are sending a lot of text oversea, it will still can save you money, because for example Vodafone charge you 50p per day for internet use, if you send text oversea without FishText, three text will cost you 60p, but with FishText, if you send 3 text to Malaysia, it will cost you 53.9p. You will save a lot more if you send a lot of text. One way for you to avoid paying for mobile internet is by sending text from your computer. FishText have an online software from where you can send your text and your contact will see your text as if it is send from your mobile.

Another way is to get your free sim from 3 and for every £10 top-up, you will get free internet for up to 90 days. When you register for FishText, they will credit your account with 20p for you to test it first. When you have use your 20p, you need to top up your account for you to be able to send more text. Minimum top up is £5. Hope this help.
