These are some of the free SMS sites that I’ve used or currently using. They are Australian-based and can only send to Australian recipients at the moment.
 |
SMSPupSending one SMS will cost you 1 point. You earn points by clicking an email ads that they send you periodically (usually once a day or every several days). You need to send the SMS from their site only. Address Book: Yes |
 |
FreeSMSMateGives you 5 free SMSes daily. It will auto-refresh back to 5 free SMS every day. You can get further free SMSes by joining their promotions on the site. |
 |
MotoCrew (motocrew.com.au – links no longer working)Gives you 50 free SMSes weekly. However, if there are too many people sending SMSes at a given time, you need to wait for half an hour for the “pool” to be refreshed/emptied. |
 |
Youtext.com.auAfter logging in, type in a number, your message, and then send. Fast and easy! I’m not sure what’s the limit of daily SMS that you can send per day, although I’ve heard it’s 5 SMS per number. Address Book: No address book feature yet. |
| Conclusion
usually use FreeSMSMate until I’ve wasted all of the SMS, and then start using the other ones. With SMSPup, you can just accumulate the points (by receiving the ads email and clicking them to get 1 point) until you need extra SMSes.Check out my blog about Letxt as well here (they offer free 5 SMS per day (and not just to Australian mobile numbers). |

MOTOcrew does say the sender is ‘MOTOcrew’, but if you hit reply on your phone it will go back to the mobile number of the person who sent the message.
I’ve tried a few of these services and MOTOcrew is the only one I’ve actually gone back to. They don’t send you spam emails and SMS to earn points or anything like that. And yeah, sometimes you have to wait for a few mins for the next ‘pool’ of free SMS, but i’ll take that over crappy advertising being thrown at me any day.
Letxt looks kind of cool too, will have to check it out thanks for the info!
wow, that was great post.. thanx for sharing the same…

Motocrew died, turned into MotoMusic which has now died (as of 12 noon yesterday)
it was always the most reliable in my opinion
Ah.. honestly I haven’t used Motocrew (or MotoMusic) for long.. been using Yakedi (although it’s limited to 3 sms a day)

I am super disappointed they don’t have the rings in all the Apple colors
Hey, what happened to Motocrew? Haven’t needed it for some time, and now I try to log in the site soesn’t seem to exist anymore. Have they packed up for good, then?
I think so. The only free SMS for Australians I know is just Yakedi at the moment.
I think there may be some limit of sending the messages for free as mostly sites follows this.
will someone help to ensure me that free sms mate is actually 100% free unless using other services on their site. just dnt want to receive a shock bill
I haven’t used it for long so I’m not sure whether they are still free. Yakedi.com is still free although you can only send 3 sms per day
