What number are you trying to text?

If it's a Premium SMS 5XXXX number then these are not supported on 48.

Hope this helps.

Just found this so I presume that you were trying to text 50300?

That being the case it will not work because, as mentioned above, txts to PSMS 5XXXX numbers are not supported on 48.

You can also donate to the Irish Cancer Society by credit card or PayPal here if that's of any use?

@taradaly01

I just posted about this in the Newsroom, see here.

As 48 doesn't provide a service for premium text numbers like dalyer mentioned above, you do still have a chance to take part by sending @48goconquer your selfie tweet before the 28th March, and 48 will donate 4 eur to the Irish Cancer Society.
