Send SMS from My iPad to recharge prepaid data account

Postby DowCo1 on 05 Aug 2010, 16:01

Hello,

I have installed a sim card in my 3G iPad with a prepay data account. The way this works is that every time I want to use the Internet, I send an SMS with the word HOUR, DAY, WEEK, or MONTH, depending on how much time I need to use it, and they charge the corresponding amount from my credit card. However, the SMS needs to tell the system that it is coming from my own number, and not a Swirly system number, so it "knows" which credit card to charge, and therefore activate my acct. for the time specified.

I need to know if SwirlyMMS can do this (send messages with my caller id), before I purchase.

Thank you.

I have exactly the same issue. I need to send a native SMS to activate the prepaid Internet.
Will SwirlyMMS support native SMS from the iPad?

Ed, did you ever find an answer to this question? I am still interested in using my iPad with a prepaid acct.

SwirlyMessage does send native SMSes in the same way as any cell-phone does. So, from your description it should work perfectly well.
