Sending texts to landlines
« on: May 31, 2009, 03:35:36 PM »
Apart from the comedy element of having some robotic male or female voice repeat certain expressions or text speak is this function ever used for anything useful  Shrugs:

The Brat and her friends often send illiterate texts to the landline just to p1ss themselves laughing at how it sounds  evil: and I often get stupid bloody text messages from some companies offering this that or the other....but quite honestly if I could find a way of just receiving telephone calls on my telephone I would be more then happy  noooo:

I always hang up immediately. Some of these "Text Phone Messages" can, I am told, cost you a lot as they charge the call out to the recipient.
Maybe someone here will know more about this but in the meantime I will keep hanging up.

It is used just for the receivers benefit Mss D.

I mean when the phone rings with one of these don't you think "Twat! You texted my landline instead of my moby didnt you?" I would never do that. I am so superior to you. Life favours me, it laughs at you cos you cannot even send a text message without fvkcing it up"

We sit back and sip a cold drink in self satisfied comfort.

Cos we have never done that have we? eh? eh?

I havent.

Never.

Ever.

Like.

Simples.  ;D
