Vodafone Texter is Back

Webmonkey · 08-10-2005 3:40pm #1

Hi Everyone,

Just got the vodafone texter thingy working again.

Location: http://www.kerrypages.com/text/

If you would like a copy of the script, please PM me or something.
As said before I do not record messages, numbers or passwords. I know I could easily but I don't. If you don't want to trust me then thats fine - Don't use the program, other wise save good time by using it.

Would you like to explain what this is......

Random · 08-10-2005 6:15pm

I'd be interested in the code when the Meteor version is up and running

Basically does the whole loggin into vodafone and navigating through the site for you in one go. So basically one click instead of a few. I dunno up to yourself if you want to use it or not but script could be handy if you would like to incorporate a text message thing on your website as a means of contacting you.

kmart6 · 08-10-2005 9:35pm

So what it just means you use this instead of the Vodafone site???

Webmonkey · 08-10-2005 9:37pm

If you want. It can also be useful if you want to hard code it into websites as contact forms via text, or like one suggested, monitor web servers to make sure they live and to alert you via text if problem. Its just a cheap alternative way rather than using SMS gateways which can cost lots of money.

Ok im just going to leave it cause it still is'nt really making much sense to me now!!!Thanks anyway!!!

Webmonkey · 08-10-2005 10:47pm

Ok well maybe you'll understand some day...

nice one donal - CYPM

fletch · 08-10-2005 11:14pm

Sounds like an excellent idea....pity i'm with meteor and only get 30 free online txts

Random · 08-10-2005 11:16pm

Meteor give 300 free!

flywheel · 09-10-2005 12:43am

not to pre-pay they don't, only 30

Random · 09-10-2005 12:46am

I am on prepay, I get 300 texts per month. Everyone on prepay gets 300 texts per month free from their website.

I would suggest you email info@meteor.ie with your phone number and website pin number and ask them to fix it for you.

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 11:37am

Im not going to bother making a meteor one onless someone can double confirm that you get 300 texts on pay as you go. Wouldn't be worth it if it just 30.
even though ciaran you seem to say there is and maybe your right. Just need someone else to confirm this too

spartacus93 · 09-10-2005 12:38pm

Doesn't seem to work for me. Is my username my phone number like it is on my vodafone? And password the 4 digit pin? Well done anyway seems like a app that could have many uses. I probably just did something wrong.

No they dont. I also only get 30 free texts p/m. Its all to do with the tarriff that you are on. I prefer to keep the 13c rate for all network calls after 6pm and the rewards scheme on credit purchased during each month.

Thats why I only get 30, well thats what their CS tell me anyway.

Same here, My details are correct, I know that for sure. Maybe there is a slight glitch in it. I am using my vodafone number. (before anyone comments on my previous post about my meteor account.)

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 12:54pm

Strange. It isn't your 4 digit pin though that you use.
When you registered on vodafone.ie you were sent a password, I think it is a 5 digit password. or maybe it has letters too. Still works fine here for me anyways.
And yes the username is your phone number inc the 087 before

Aquos76 · 09-10-2005 12:58pm

For the destination numer, should we be using+3538? or just 08?

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 1:07pm

Just 08

kmart6 · 09-10-2005 2:37pm

I can confirm that Meteor offer 300 webtexts,or well atleast thats what I have!!!

Yeah ... Most on Meteor Anytime and Meteor Leisure Time packages get 30 messages a month. Most of Meteor Minutes, Meteor Talk Time, Anytime Plus and Leisuretime Plus get 300 a month.

I tried it with my number (an 085 number ported to Vodafone) and my brothers 087 and they didnt work. I'm using the 4 digit my vodafone pin, the same one I would use to login to my vodafone. Have tried using IE and Opera. Tried on two different machines both networked and I am using Digiweb Dsl. I don't know if any off this makes a difference (or if you care) but it may help you understand the problem!

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 2:47pm

hmm i dunno then. It works fine for me here. Anyone else having problems?

Random · 09-10-2005 3:13pm

Just tried it with my sisters details and won't send either webmonkey.

Re: meteor - I'm on Pre-Pay Meteor Anytime Plus with 300 txts.

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 3:19pm

hmm odd. I might have an idea whats up alright. They might have different field names for different groups of numbers. I'll work on fixing it later on.

Webmonkey · 09-10-2005 3:49pm

No luck mate.

Hmm, I have been using TextBuddy which used to work great, though at the moment, messages are not sending. The app is similar to yours WebMonkey (I used to host your wee app a year or so ago), except you download a client instead of using a website.

Maybe issues are related, perhaps it's an issue with vodafone server?
