Amazing quick and reliable. Now costs a bit though. See link below:

This is a service that provides text message based info for people who don't have a smart phone or don't have data. I know this works for USA and Canada.

You have to send a text message to 1 (312) 313-1234 with the right format depending on what you want

SamFried vos iz neis ywn and kol haolam used to have but they all stopped a few months ago

Flippy

Nhaaps Yes, anyone have any info on that?? They all texted that they will be moving to a new platform but never sent out anything besides for a conffirmation.... just strange, Yid Info is the only one that seems to be working.

Nhaaps

Flippy TLS also did and they just started up again so maybe the others will too

Flippy Update to this: Yid info stopped their SMS service due to "technical difficulties"

Well yidinfo, without much fanfare, just restarted their texting service, and they sent a bunch so far, so its a good option if someone wants news...

Atusb

Flippy I just heard recently from a very reliable source that the platforms used to send out text has skyrocketed in price causing them to have to shut down

BORED Dial-a-deal

Flippy call and try its not hard just type what your searching for (a little annoying as there is no t9 😆 a-2 b-22 c-222 2-2222 d-3...)

Flippy

BORED Tried. after you choose the item, they already ask for credit card. Does it actually work to order items? Do they charge anything additional? Are they making you an account or using their own account? And what if you have an issue with the item/delivery... etc.

BORED

Flippy Idk I never ordered anything. there is an option on the main menu for comments, call and ask.
