Hi guys

sorry for the upcoming rant but SMS-Chat REALLY screwed with me for the last few days...

here's the story

GF is studying out of town so we communicate via SMS.
I also use this service that provides me with cheap long distance calling
how it works is u dial an access number (xxx)-xxx-xxxx, then wen prompted u dial the number u want to reach (my gf's cell number) (yyy)-yyy-yyyy

What I did to make this easier for me when dialing the access number was I saved the number as (xxx)-xxx-xxxx p (yyy)-yyy-yyyy.... the 'p' is for pause which makes it wait a lil and then dial my gf's number in the process, that way I wont have to enter it everytime I dial the access number.

I saved this long number under my GF's contact as "home 2" (because her mobile and home are taken). Her mobile is saved as (yyy)-yyy-yyyy under 'mobile' obviously.
Since then NONE of my msgs through SMS-Chat have reached her it was unbelievable and I never realized the problem until now.

Under my threaded convo for my gf it says "Name h" where the h is 'home'...this bugged me for some time until I realized that for some freakin reason SMS-CHAT decided to set the long number saved under 'home 2' (xxx)-xxx-xxxx p (yyy)-yyy-yyyy as the DEFAULT number for her text msgs!!!!! THis means every msg I was sending through sms-chat no longer went to the number saved under 'mobile', but "home 2"!! The access number was getting the txt msgs......

I seriously dont get wtf it has to do this. It doesnt matter where I save the long number under, if I save (xxx)-xxx-xxxx p (yyy)-yyy-yyyy under "home 1", "business", "car phone" w/e, it TAKES PRECEDENT OVER "mobile" which is just her mobile (yyy)-yyy-yyyy number. As a result, ALL MY text msgs were being sent to (xxx)-xxx-xxxx p (yyy)-yyy-yyyy, (the access number + pause + her mobile number) instead of (yyy)-yyy-yyyy (her mobile number which is SAVED under 'mobile' )

***The main problem I noticed is that under the long number, the number after 'p' is her mobile number. Somehow because this is identical to her actual mobile number this causes it to take precedent over her mobile number saved under 'mobile'. If I save a different 'regular' phone number under 'home 2" or anything else, this problem doesn't occur...............


I then decide to make a separate contact for my gf under the long number, and upon doing so.....get this...SMS-CHAT now defaults to that NEW contact that I just created.....unbelievable I tell you


I'm glad there's a trial, because until this is fixed there's no way I'm paying for this program.

It should NOT matter how I save the phone numbers as, SMS should ALWAYS default the sending to the number listed under "MOBILE" for contacts!
