EasySMS2 Service Specific Terms and Conditions
The EasySMS2 service enables customers to have Desktop SMS
functionality not dissimilar to Desktop email. It provides a simple
text messaging service that is a very personal, and unobtrusive
method of passing simple messages between PC's and Mobiles. Similar
to e-mail, you type a message, enter the destination (a mobile
number), then press Send. The message is sent to the destination
handset in a matter of seconds.
The User will need to have a PC running Windows 98, NT or XP
that has access to the Internet, ideally a constant connection. We
will provide all the necessary executable files and installation
instructions. However it will be the User's responsibility to
install EasySMS2 and set up the Internet connection.
The EasySMS2 service is billed on a monthly basis for the number
of SMS messages sent and there is a minimum charge per month.
EasySMS2 has the following features:
- Group SMS send functionality
- Reply from Mobile back to the PC.
- Personal phonebook features with the ability to import numbers,
from Outlook for example.
- Template messages
- Personal Signature Tool, to e.g. set your own mobile number as
"Call back" option.
- Automated split of messages containing more than 160 characters
up to 600 Characters. Messages will be numbered 1/4 2/4 etc. (Note.
A charge is applicable for each concatenated message.)
- Sent message log and Overall Statistics, with delivery
reports
It also enables automated messages to be sent from customer
Servers or Alarm Systems by using the constant IP link to the
SMSc.
These C&W Service Specific Terms and Conditions should be
read in conjunction with the C&W General Terms and Conditions.
Where there is conflict these Service Specific Terms and Conditions
supersede the General Terms and Conditions.
