It does seem to work. You got me on the charges thing, but I hear you..
In terms of the tons of texts on a windy day. The way I see it -
If someone sends one, maybe one more for confirmation. Beyond that is overkill. Then maybe one per 1.5 hours to say "still blowing".
No need to send 20 msgs. all saying same thing.
I just transferred that acc't over to someone else to be admin because I was using a friend's phone number to activate it and don't even have a text mssging service on my phone. So I am not even on the list anymore.
I have zero clue on charges and stuff. I talk with my voice on my phone.
Hopefully it's not a scam.
My first feeling with Skype was "too good to be true" and I have talked to people from all over on it for free. So.... some stuff is actually free (?) or normal charge.
Makes no sense, I know.
