Service centre numbers

To send and receive text messages you need the telephone number of your
network's text centre. If you accidentally delete the send or receive service
centre numbers you will need to re-enter them in order for your text service to
work. The send and receive centre numbers are pre-populated for BT's PSTN text
message service but you can change them to another service if you want to. BT's
text message send service number is: 1470P17094009 and the receive service
number is: 0800587529.
