Singtel SMS Plus service for SMS forwarding

[raindance]

Is anyone using this? I want to subscribe to this to forward all my SMS from line A to line B. Most importantly all my OTP that I am receiving on line A.

But I see in their FAQ the following:

Q. What kind of SMS is not applicable to the SMS Plus Service?
A. The service does not apply to the following types of SMS:

Premium SMS (e.g. SMS for donations, SMS from paid services, etc.).
SMS sent from short-codes.
SMS sent with alphanumeric sender field


So does that mean OTP and those SMS from sender like say "OCBC" will not get forwarded???

If both lines are in phones with internet access, you can just get an app that forwards SMS via email

Well Singtel is charging $0.54 per month for that, so I'd rather pay that if it serves my purpose rather than leaving another phone on 24/7.

Anyway I don't think such an app exists for iPhone? I'm trying to forward to Android phone.

If anyone is subscribing to this please let me know your feedback. Thanks!

From what I understand of their tos it seems it's ¢54 for every SMS forwarded or $2.14 a month for unlimited use.

If your android phone supports multiple sim you can put both sim and not bother with this service.

Those OTP that is send using alphanumeric sender will not be forwarded. I believe this is due to security reason.

Forwarded SMS will count towards your SMS bundle. If forward to global number, global SMS charges will apply.
