Word of advice for buyers -
All the reviews about smses getting blocked or smses not sending during trials are from noobs who got their hand into this goldmine service for free trial and started spamming smses with links without any logic. Ofcourse you will get banned and get blocked, its not the issue of this service its the way you use the service.
We have bulk volume sender using our service sending 100k smses a day generating paypercall traffic and they are crushing it everyday.
This is the main reason why we added a sim cost to the service now as noobs came in and burned 100s of fresh sim for free and then came here and cried that messages were blocked. Clients who have been in the sms game are using this service without any issue.
As I already said in the updated post, we will deliver 1 SMS to your personal cell from the dashboard from your sim to ensure its a fresh sim which delivers. After that ball is on your court, how you use the service will decide the outcome!

indianbill007 Go easy on them bro. I'm also a noob when it comes to SMS marketing. It's one a kind service which we don't usually see here. When we did, we are really excited and wanted to try it badly. Let's accept the fact that there is no documentation of any sorts which explains how to use the service, There are no best practices, do's and don'ts kind of stuff shown to new comers.
It took a while for you to figure out what pricing structure works best for both you and buyers and to stop service misuse by newbies due to lack of documentation so I suggest you to have a clear instruction document with all necessary details to new comers. Even better you can add some case studies or have videos explaining the correct way to use the service. You can also list down all "what you shouldn't do" in your service thread as well as in service module. This will be beneficial for both parties.
For buyers, I suggest you to have some patient if you really wish to try this service. This is not a magical tool where you can upload some numbers and blast SMS and expect it to work. Trust me it won't! I have been learning this stuff for many days since I'm new to this. I made many mistakes too right from uploaded contacts to sending messages. Every time I face an issue, I simply ping their support team via Skype.
Trust me guys, they are really helpful. Some mistakes which I did is really stupid and they were patient in every aspect and helped me to sort of the issue. Their first level support is from US and I'm from India. A direct conflict in time zone. But whenever I tried to reach them during odd hours, someone at the end reply back sometimes even on Sundays! As far as I can see, they care about everyone who sign up and want all of us to utilize this service for best of our interest.
So if you are serious about SMS marketing, try the service and get help from support whenever required and get going. I'm just sharing few things which I have learned so far:
1. Spam never works with their service.
2. Don't try to send message with URL in your first message. Pitch them what you are offering with yes or no question. If they say yes, reply back with your offer and URL. There could be other ways, I don't know as I'm still learning
3. Make sure your lead is targeted and valid. Don't waste your credit with poor quality numbers.
4. Get in touch with support and find what kind of offers/verticals works best. In the last message OP mentioned, someone is using pay per call and making a killing! That's a key information. You can get such information and more from support.
5. There is an option to send message in Spintax format which allows your send same offer with different messages and shortlinks. Utilize the same to stay under radar.
