Okay; Both me and my business partner Jay are in a competition against the two other guys in my office. The competition is to set up two opposing companies each and see who can make the most profit in a given timeframe (and I'm speaking of single-to-double figure pounds here, not hundreds or thousands - to be honest I reckon the winner will be the one to break even).
User enters his/her telephone number and clicks a button on the website.
Website contact 3rd party provider via HTTP POST, passing telephone number and short message.
3rd party provider calls user's landline or mobile telephone delivering the message in an automated voice.
Problem is the guy in my office refuses to tell me who the 3rd party provider is - and I cannot find another.
I wouldn't be all that fussed except that I can see this system being of use in an upcoming future project. I've searched the internet high and low and this website is the closest I can find. It uses SMS, but I'm not convinced that this is the correct method as you're ultimately relying on landline recipients possessing a text-compatible phone, or using line providers such as BT who have text-to-voice translators. I think there's got to be a dedicated provider for this service, though I would be happy to settle for the latter if it turns out there isn't one.
i believe that's what you're talking about.
Looks promising Steve and I can't wait for you to post the links to the new websites.
Oh man, I can't wait to see the new site - it will no doubt rock the house.
Best of lunch on your endeavor, I have no doubt you'll do great.
