I was wondering if anybody has had any dealings with a company/service called nTouch.
They offer a web-based SMS service across all the networks and specialise in bulk SMS bundles.
I came across them because it's one of the current Wicount specials and I am considering trying them out. What appeals most is the fact that the SMS credits you buy from them never expire, unlike a typical SMS bundle that is valid for 30 days.
However, their site doesn't give much information. A quick whois revealed that the nTouch site was registered by a company called MCI Consultants but more than that I can't find out. There is no information on the MCI site about nTouch.
The sort of questions I'm asking myself before trying them out are along the lines of:
Even if you just check out the links I've provided and have an opinion on whether they look worth using/trying, I'd like to hear it.
Thanks in advance!

- Can sending an SMS through nTouch be done via the browser on my BB?
- If they have an app available for BB to use (MCI is a BB certified software developer that creates custom mobile solutions)?
- You have to load your contacts into their system to send messages to those numbers - is that information secure?
- Will the recipient of the SMS be able to see my name or number to know who the SMS is from?
- Do the SMS's contain any advertising or other 3rd party/nTouch content?
- Are the SMSs the full 140 characters?
