Three or so years back when I moved to VOIP (with A&A), the implication 
was that I could get SMS to my VOIP line.  However on further 
investigation, you could get it on my exchange, but only to a limited 
range of numbers, and mine wasn't in that range.  So far as I could 
tell, it was a range that had never been used by BT and its 
predecessors.
