67Text messaging
Your BT6500 can send and receive text messages
from participating networks and compatible
landline telephones in the UK. The fixed line text
service is provided under BT’s terms and conditions
for telephone service. These can be found by
visiting the bt.com website at http://www.bt.com/
terms. There is no subscription charge (other than
the subscription to Caller Display). Visit www.
bt.com to find out how much it costs to send a text
message, the cost will depend on your call package.
All messages in the inbox and sent folders are
synchronised across all handsets registered to the
base. Additions and deletions made on one handset
are synchronised across all registered handsets.
Draft messages remain local to each handset.
Register to the text messaging service
You will have been prompted to register for the
text messaging service when you first set up your
phone. If you chose not to register during set up,
you can register following these instructions:
1. Select Menu, scroll
to display Text messages
and press Select.
IMPORTANT
You must subscribe to your

translate common abbreviations
and smileys etc, but to ensure
maximum clarity of message
delivery, abbreviations should
be used sparingly.
