Q:
How many characters may I include in a text message?
Unlike other websites, Super Mobile Solutions offers you as many characters as
you wish, however every 160 charcter will be calculated as 1 sms. up to 160. Please keep a couple of things in mind. 1) Username counts
against the usable characters. And 2) Some characters limit messages to 140 characters, so if your message is sent to one of those
characters anything past 140 characters would be cut off from your message.
