The Unofficial Speak Out Wireless Canada Consumer Page - Topic: Receiving SMS messages https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/receiving-sms-messages/ Simple:Press Version 5.7.5.3 flyboy320 on Receiving SMS messages https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/receiving-sms-messages/#p22394 Phone/Device Issues and Features https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/receiving-sms-messages/#p22394 I did manage to find a solution that should suffice for me. I get the app to send an SMS as an email to (cell number)@pcs.Rogers.com. This way I receive an instant message. The message I get says there is a message from flightstatus@aircanada, so at least I now know right away there is a flight status change to one of my flights and all I have to do is check my emails for the details. Of course I can't reply to the SMS to actually read it, but it works for me

I would ask SpeakOut that question.

I guess sending a text from cell phone to cell phone works different that a SMS being sent, in this case from a company like Air Canada, is that why it doesn't work?

Is there any other way of receiving a SMS perhaps having it forwarded from a different service like google?

At this point I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or a problem with the app.

So is there any reason I shouldn't get SMS messages? Are they blocked by SO?
