Advantages: Save money, easy to use, lots of other benefits Disadvantages: No UK Customer service, sometimes messages delayed
I first discovered www.Uboot.com, on online text/SMS service, 2 years ago when they were young and free. Since then alas, they have started charging for their service… but I knew this would happen. The subscription cost is nothing compared to the savings you make if you decide to join. I’m not kidding – my mobile bill has changed radically since becoming a member and Uboot gives me what I need to satiate my texting needs as well as some fun stuff ... ...WHY USE UBOOT?
If you are a text addict like myself, you will know the agony of opening up the latest mobile bill and gasping with horror at all the texts you ‘supposedly’ sent last month. You frown with annoyance, check your breathing and vow that you never sent this many (‘they must be wrong’) and if you did, this must stop. From now on you will only send a maximum of two a day, that’s it, no more exorbitant text-sending for you.
But this doesn’t ...

Advantages: Unlimited Free SMS,Email, Extras. Disadvantages: Not All Free.
Not long ago I told you about The free SMS site Vizzavi, however it is not the only site of it’s kind available.

Advantages: Free, easy to use, email facilities Disadvantages: Will it stay free? can't always get replies to inbox.
WOW! I recently wrote about SMS free texting using Lycos but was tempted to look at this site through another site (Dooyoo!) member's comment (thanks to Helen 79 on Dooyoo!). It seems it's just as well as since singing the praises of the Lycos SMS service I have had nothing but problems with slow service and constant error messages when trying to send texts. So I decided to check out U Boot and I can confirm it's great! All free, it provides free ... ...network people can even reply to your SMS messages to your computer Uboot inbox but I haven't had any luck with that yet. Quite how they offer all their services free I don't know as this site appears devoted to messaging and there is very little advertising evident apart from advertising their own services?! Hmmm, will it last? Apart from questions of possible longevity, for now the site has a lot to offer. Signing up is free, you choose a nickname ...

Advantages: very effiecient Disadvantages: no file attachments
uboot is brilliannt. Ever since I first got onto it I have used every single time i have been on the net and I feel this is the complete online mobile package. It is completely geared towards connecting the mobiles and intenet, and includes many different features
In my uni and with my friends on the internet it seemed to reach a high level of interest around christmas but due to some problems many dropped it as a regular visitor. However in recent ... ...it. Before, when you opened your inbox you could not tell who the messages were off but this has since been changed. All the broken links have also been corrected. It can send text messages as expected but does it far easier than having to go through many pages of terms and conditions i.e. lycos (which many peeps still use). It has an address book where you can store the numbers you want to text with their names, email address etc. This is very VERY ...
