I have tried to send a text message through Chikka, where someone supposedly can send a text message from their personal computer to another person's cell phone. I haven't been successful in completing this task. Does anyone know what numbers I should enter on the Chikka page if I am trying to send a text from the United States to the Philippines? For an example, let me say that the number is 639093118181.

If you have used Chikka before, can you enlighten me on the correct sequence of numbers to use? Thanks!

your number was correct already...maybe you will try adding plus(+) sign before the number ... +639211515152...

i hope that it can help

u must put 011 before ur number also u can use yahoo messager or skype to chat for free this includes talk conversation

Yes Chikka messenger is still active somehow there is a specifi version maybe v4 which I don't really understant. I am confused which is which to be used V4 or V5. Possibly it is V5.

I can receive the messages from the chikka and I could also send a reply. I think that was right that it should be included the +639......give itr a try again.

There is another option if you want to save. Let your friend or whoever in the Philippines to send you a roaming number so that they can send a text message with just 1 peso per text. It works. Try it.

try the smart roaming, so easy to use..no need to register and no need to maintain a balance so that you can receive a text from the Philippines.

We are fairly new to the cell phone thing. When we lived in Stehekin for those 10 years, for the first half of that time the internet was not available there, and there was only one telephone in the entire community. When the internet came in with 2 way satellite, we got on the internet fairly quickly. Then when we moved here we used a cell phone on our daughter's family plan. That works fairly well.

They have a deal here that if you call someone who has the same company you get to talk for free. Otherwise it can cost to call, and the person answering the phone call might have to pay for the call also. Our granddaughter has unlimited texting, but she texts my wife, her grandmother, and then if Carol answers her with a text I think it is 10 cents. All the rules can be fairly complicated.
