Hi

We are receiving the MSISDN from the operator without the leading "+", I have tried TON=1 but it didn't work, is there anyway to work around this problem?

We are using v5.51k (SMPP)

best regards

Hi,

The TON parameter would only apply to messages that you are submitting.

If the TON=1 is not set on messages that you receive from that provider, then NowSMS would assume that the number is not in international format (no "+").

Perhaps you can ask your provider to set TON=1 for your account.

IF that is not possible, maybe you could insert a "+" when processing with a 2-way command?
