Messaging International Plc Bell Mobility launches Text-to-Landline service with TeleMessage

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 06, 2008 -
The Text-to-Landline software enables Bell Mobility wireless customers to create and send text messages which are converted to voice messages and retrieved by landline recipients. The recipient can then respond by voice to the wireless customer, who will receive the reply message as a text.  The wireless customer will also receive a status text message telling him if the message was delivered to a live person or a voicemail system. Bell Mobility customers who use the service will pay standard text message costs and TeleMessage will receive a percentage of this fee.

Guy Levit, CEO of Messaging International, said, “The launch with Bell Mobility will allow thousands of customers to enjoy the benefits of our Text-to-Landline service.  Additionally, the agreement further strengthens our already impressive client list of major global telecom operators, which have chosen to integrate our messaging services due to their innovative and leading edge over competitive systems.”
