Just a heads up - the free SMS is being shutdown tomorrow, but www.118.com may offer it in the future. :)

Read my first post, I said tomorrow.
Despite this, it may not stop tomorrow at all from what I've been told but it will happen soon.

Dear registered user,

As a registered user of the 118888.co.uk free SMS service we are
writing to inform you that due to rapidly increasing demand we will have to
reduce the number of free messages allowed per registered user. At the
moment each user is permitted to send 10 messages per day which is
approximately 300 per month. As of the 16th of May we will be reducing this
allowance to 50 free SMS messages per month.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause but we hope you
continue to enjoy our free SMS service despite this essential reduction.

Thank you for your continued support.

Yours sincerely,

118888.co.uk

You might want to poke someone into sorting out accessability on that site too, they'll end up risking a hefty fine in the future.

There's not a lot of point because it's being replaced by 118.com

Which isn't better accessability wise, run this through webxact

http://www.118.com/CompanyDetails.as...1-8EACC75CA380

Missing ALT's on lines 95, 104, 112, 135, 139, 143 & 154 (they might want to look at their HTML markup too ;))
