This has probably been answered many times before, but the search function wasn't helping me very much so here goes:

1. Does Text2000 on Vodafone include texts to B+W? I know B+W->Vodafone is counted as the same, but I'm wondering if it's the same the other way.

2. Does the number Vodafone provide for checking ported numbers (I forget the number at the moment, you texted a mobile number and it replied if it was on Vodafone or not) work for B+W numbers?

Thanks

And in answer to question 1, yes applies both ways. Anything "on-net" works both ways for either companies customers.

Excellent tip! I wonder if the reverse is true? (Telstraclear on Telecom on-net deals?)
