    5 Stars Free texts? Get in! 14/03/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free texting, easy enough to navigate, 8 free texts a day.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Some features expensive, very slow loading, TERRIBLE background music!

    Note - I am only reviewing the free stuff on this site. This is because A) When I join a text site I don't join to pay someone loads of cash when I can do that on my phone anyway, and B) Because I haven't explored them yet due to reason A). During the long summer holidays of 2004, I did what most jobless 16 year olds do.... ran out of credit on my phone. And frankly, I could not be bothered totopup. Now, the rest of my family used Lycos to text people, sending 5(I think) free texts a day. But that wasnt enough. So, armed with a keyboard and Google, I searched for oh, about ten minutes. I found ... more

    2 Stars Txt for less - internet sms 23/03/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Make new friends, Something to do!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Costs lots, not as good as it sounds!

    With the cost of mobiles these days whether on a contract or pay as you go deals. The internet can be a solution to all us text maniacs out there. As I discovered WWW.SMS.AC my first thought was great a simple website address to remember that memory of mine couldn’t take in any complicated. Co.uk’s or. Uk.org! Of course there is always the simple solution to this just add it to my favorites but I’m not always using the same computer so this wouldn’t help! SMS.AC web page is quite bland looking nothing really stands out when you arrive apart from the SMS.AC logo, which is in four different ... more

    4 Stars My review for www.SMS.ac 21/09/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Mobile Community, Free Messaging, Cool Site, Pictures of contacts

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can get expensive

    I have been using this site for two months now and have come a bit addicted to it. It's kind of a pain to always need to go the web to send to my smsClubs and groups, but I find myself doing it every day. I contacted their customer service and was informed that there is supposedly going to be full mobile functionality and a WAP version of their site. It will be much better then. If you like to flirt around, I would highly recommend smsFlirt. I usually get a response rate of about 50%, which is really high in comparison to many other dating sites or services. I have had several dates using SMS ... more

    1 Star Quick review of sms.ac by Kurt81 06/07/2007
    This site is a complete scam, google and you will see several complains, I signed up for free texts. I started receiving text on my phone, fake friends requests etc which were charing me 50p everytime i received one and I was getting 5 or more per day. Nothing during signing up warned me of this but it seems whilst signing up for these "free" text you are signed up for a premium account. This site is an expensive scam, stay away.

    5 Stars SMS.ac - I love this site! 17/09/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Meet lots of cool peeps, great ringtones, some free SMS

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Quite a few pents (similar to what others are charging)

    I have been using SMS.ac (www.sms.ac) for quite some time now (over a year?). I have two good friends that I have met from this site, as well as a couple of dates ;) They have a HUGE community of people in which you can join a particular group with the same interest base. Some clubs are slow, but some are pretty active (some are too active.. so, make sure you figure out what you want before you sign up). I was in about 25 SMS.ac clubs to begin with and after a year, I am in 4 clubs - all moderately active, which is great if you want to interact with people and really get to know people (inside ... more
