Nice offer by Ufone. Hope other operators will follow this offer of Ufone.
gr8 offer by ufone i hate warid…………..
I would rather go the other arround,
Is there any service of sending SMS on any number in Pakistan using email? any help ?
Forexample if i want to send SMS to 0321XXXXXX and 0300XXXXX , i would type [email protected] and [email protected] , ( assuming pakcell is a private company providing “SMS to EMAIL” service to send SMS on any network in Pakistan). By using this method, i would simply pay a minimal monthly amount to pakcell.com and will keep sending SMS’s to any cell-number through my email account.
This seems little trickier to me, and can be a good idea for a new company to launch this service.
