freephoneline and text messaging?
I currently have freephoneline. Does anyone know of a way to receive free text messages with this? Or if not possible to work with a freephoneline number, then is there another way to get free text messaging?

I thought those were separate services requiring a different phone number.

OK, I agree. We're playing with terminology here. I too have Freephoneline and it runs using my landline phone which certainlly can't handle text messages.death_hawk wrote: ↑FPL isn't a landline. It's VoIP.
You can certainly text via VoIP just not specifically with FPL.

FPL paid SIP accounts work on smartphones using any decent SIP app.

Come to think of it, you can text with landlines. It just uses TTS and speech to text to transcript.

This is correct. I've texted my landline from my rogers cell phone before. There are fees to do so though. I forget which side chargesdeath_hawk wrote: ↑Come to think of it, you can text with landlines. It just uses TTS and speech to text to transcript.
It's actually kind of cool.

Send a text from a cellphone and a recording will call the landline. Not sure of the reverse is possible
