2. How do I set up SMS alerts?
When you add a property you can enter the number of the mobile phone which you want your SMS alerts sent to.
3. Can I decide to stop SMS alerts or change my mobile number?
Yes, you can stop receiving SMS alerts by sending us an email asking to deactivate the free SMS alert service. You can still leave your mobile phone number on your listing for our customers to contact you.
4. How much will it cost?
The SMS alerts are free, but only available for premium listings. We reserve the right to withdraw the service without notice, or charge for it in the future.
5. What name is displayed as the sender of the SMS alert?
SMS alerts will display 'Automic' as the sender. The name of the sender can be no more than 11 characters, so we cannot display Guide-to-Ireland.com, and have had to choose 'Automic', our company name.
6. What does the SMS alert message look like?
The SMS alert is a text message saying : You have received a booking enquiry by email from Guide to Ireland.
7. What countries are covered?
We can send SMS alerts to mobiles being used in almost any country. Click here to view a list of international telephone dialing codes by country.
8. Can you guarantee that the SMS alert will reach me?
Although we will make every effort to ensure that the SMS alerts are sent out reliably, we cannot guarantee that you will receive them. The service depends on the service providers in the countries covered by the SMS alerts, and we cannot guarantee continuous service in all of them.
9. Will I continue to receive booking enquiries by email, phone and fax?
Yes, email booking enquiries continue to be sent to you by email, telephone and fax.
10. Why are you setting up SMS alerts?
There are two reasons. Firstly we know that our visitors like replies to their email enquiries as soon as possible, and this service will enable our advertisers, who may not have constant access to their emails, to respond immediately to email booking enquiries.

Secondly, on the pretext of protecting their customers from receiving spam, some internet service providers block emails without the sender or the recipient knowing about it. By give our advertisers the option of receiving SMS alerts, we make sure they can receive all the email enquiries sent to them.
