Notifying People By Sms Texting through the internet

Recommended Posts

It is quite simle to send an automatic confirmation email to people after they have filled in a form on your website.I was wondering now if the same would be possible via SMS, so, instead of confirming their submission by email, doing it by text message.The idea occurred because they have a system at my doctor's surgery: whenever you have booked an appointment, you get a reminder SMS 24 hours prior to the appointment.Are there any scripts, or is there any code to put your own mobile phone in action in this way?I know there are certain websites from which you can send a free SMS by filling in the recipient's number and the message you wish to send, so there are probably scripts available to achieve wha I wish to do.The only thing I would like, of course, is that the sending of SMS's is free.I wouldn't wanted to be presented with a hefty bill just for providing a service to people (or at least testing such a service for a while first).Also, would the opposite be possible, could I put a form on my website where people can contact me via SMS without me having o reveal my mobile phone number?Would a script for that be available?I have had a look on hotscripts.com, but have not really found what I was looking for there.Can anyone come up with some other suggestions, please?Thank you in advance.
