How is my email-to-sms account number formatted?

Your email-to-sms account number will not look like a traditional 10-digit number. Your number is actually an email address that acts as a regular phone number. It will be formatted this way: sms+number@telefio.com.

Here are a few examples:
sms+245@telefio.com
sms+1039@telefio.com

To send a message to your number, simple enter the email address into the TO field on your phone.

To get a real phone number as your account number, you will need to upgrade to a plan that supports custom numbers.
