How to Text Message to a House Phone

How to Text Message to a House Phone thumbnail
Cellular phone users can now send text messages to home phones.

It is sometimes easier to text someone instead of calling them, for instance, when the caller is in a meeting and is not supposed to call. When a person needs to get a message to another person via text message but the recipient does not have a cellular phone, the caller can still send a text message to a home phone, just as easily as sending a text to another mobile phone. Always check with the service provider to determine if text-to-landline messaging is included in the plan.

Instructions

    • 1

      Open the cell phone's message menu.

    • 2

      Select "New Message."

    • 3

      Create a new text message just as if sending to another cellular phone.

    • 4

      Input the telephone number.

    • 5

      Click "Send."

    • 6

      Receive a confirmation text. This will indicate the message was sent successfully to the landline number. When the recipient receives the text, it will come up as a voice call translating the text. If a voicemail service answers, the text will be delivered as a voicemail.
