FullOnSms Vs Way2Sms

I think most of the Indian web users using so many services for sending free sms, Early days I am used Way2sms for send some kind of sms to my friends,

What is the problem in Way2Sms, Most of the way2Sms users can answer this question, yes whenever sending any msg to your friends or contacts, It will prefix some text like "sending via Way2Sms"



It shows that you are sending sms from internet not from your mobile, this is the Only Irritating service of Way2Sms I know..

Now I come to know that another free sms service is available without this problem as Fullonsms.com

I compared way2sms and fullonsms, These are the difference I found

1. way2sms provide fb, gtalk, yahoomessenger service in oneplace
2. way2sms provide sms alerts for mail

3. fullonsms don't add any prefix your message
4. You can easily backup your sms by sending +919212211511 in fullonsms
5. Less Ads compared to way2sms

and many of the services are more or less equal in both free sms service...

I think it may be usefull for one who send bulk sms, and don't want to add any prefix of free sms service provider...

Add a comment if you have any new thing or any doubts...

Change your servce provider without changing your mobile number at rs 19/-


Hii..This is a good news to people who want to change their network without changing their mobile number at low cost.Changing service provider without changing mobile number,this process is called as mobile number portability.
If you are using some 'X' service provider with mobile number 'xxxxxxxxxx' and you like the offers,top-ups and benefits of some 'Y' service provider you can change to 'Y' service provider with same mobile number 'xxxxxxxxxx'.

Ex: If you are using TATA network,you can change to AIRTEL network without changing your mobile number.

Charges for mobile number portability(MNP) is decided by telecom regularity authority of india(TRAI).TRAI has announced 3 charges for MNP which are portability charges,port transaction charges and dipping charges.

TRAI has announced that portability charges should not exceed rs 19/-.Port transaction charge is the amount given to the service provider(which you want to change to) and is fixed to rs 19/-.Dipping charges is purely decided by the service providers itself.The amount given by service providers to MNP organisations is called as dipping charges.This service will come into use from 31st december.
