Hotxt lowers SMS costs

US software entrepreneur Doug Richard, best known for the Dragons Den TV programme, on Monday launched Hotxt, a service offering unlimited text messages for £1 a week.

The texts are sent as packets of data, avoiding text message charges which are high relative to their cost to mobile operators. Users of Hotxt will also incur data charges from their mobile operator, estimated by Richard to be about about 1 pence a message.

The software for the service can be requested by registering on Hotxt’s website. Byt access is not available to all UK mobile subscribers. For example, O2 pre-pay customers can’t use it.
