I've been having serious problems with my script in the last few days: it
started with 90% of the messages being sent only in the 2nd, and sometimes
in the 5th retry, and in the last couple of days it got worse, and I also
started getting errors saying the message was not sent.
Does anybody else have this experience, or am I the only one seeing these
problems?
Anyway, I tried sending messages from their site, using a real web browser,
and didn't have any problems, which made me suspicious... I tried using an
http proxy in my script and also changing the browser the script reports,
and suddenly the sending succeeds most of the time... Strange! Could it be
that Cellcom is trying to stop people from using scripts? Why would they
want do do that, when all it would mean is that I'll switch to Orange because
I need the SMS service?
