Tips

  • If you run low on SMS credits, send an SMS from Gmail to your own mobile phone or to a friend's phone, then reply several times to your Gmail's SMS to increase your credit amount.

  • If you receive spam, or other unwanted text messages at your Gmail account, block the user's future incoming messages by replying to their message with the word "BLOCK." You may unblock the user at any time by sending the word "UNBLOCK" to that particular mobile phone number...
