Short codes are not supported by SpeakOut. It's the FAQ on the main site.

Thats why I posted it.

Note: Certain phone carriers (e.g. Wind Mobile, Public Mobile, Mobilicity) are not included in our list as they do not have the functionality to support text-messages to/from a “short-code” (e.g. 839846). Unfortunately, customers of these phone carriers will not be able to subscribe/register for E-News text messages until the carriers update their networks.

A friend with Fido was able to sign up and got the confirmation text in minutes. You have to reply to the confirmation text to be fully setup.

I can't even get the confirmation text so no updates. Good to hear it's not just me.

However, I would assume that they might not have the system up and running yet. Not sure ast to what carrier you are with would affect your ability to receive texts?

Is anyone receiving the GO Transit updates via SMS? I tried to sign up but SO is not one of the listed carriers. Instead I chose Rogers since we are technically piggybacking on their network. No luck as I never got the confirmation text from GO to confirm.

Guess SO customers are SOL?
