Text Divert allows subscribers to divert all incoming SMS to a number specified by the user. Costs P1 per message diverted.
Text Copy is the same as Text Divert. But for every diverted text, you'll also received the same message on your number. Costs P1 per message diverted and received.
Auto Reply is self explanatory. Subscriber can set a predefined message as an auto reply message in case you're busy doing something. P1 per message sent.
