    Send ANON Number Message to 53500

    Eg. ANON 0871234567 Guess who? to 53500

    Costs 60c

    You'd pay 60c for the privilege of sending an anonymous text to someone?

    How did you slip through the evolutionary net?

    I'd say the stalkers and psychos of ireland are rejoicing at the news of such a service.

    I'm not charging 60cent. I saw it some where else and posted it here. I've done it couple of times on my mates, didnt get charged 3 euro fo the first txt. Got charged 60c for evey txt because i checked my credit because i am waring of these sort of things, they say 1 euro but forget to say 20 cent for you operator txt and 20 c when the person received it etc etc.

    Same IP range, but this is not conclusive enough for a ban.

    As for the ‘anonymous’ texting - please! I run numerous premium rate SMS campaigns and it would take me or any other member of the public all of fifteen minutes to find out you are - read the sticky for more information.

    Wondertext operated this service for a few years. Anybody sending undesirable content gets a call from them and a ban from the service. If the recipient complains they can make the senders number available.
