Hi,
If this question has already been addressed, then I apologize.
I was at a concert recently and had a chance to text "Chesney" to 44624 to win a prize. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to do that.
Thanks for any help with this.

Select "compose sms text" from your messages menu, then just scroll up to the "use once" and you can input the 5 digits.
5 digits for texting are reserved for businesses (such as the promotion you saw). For example, I get text updates from Twitter from a 5 digit number (40404)
Spose that then you open yourself to spam texts from businesses since you initiated business contact? I'm thinking likely.
True. I'd check the fine print on any win-by-texting contests before I sent off an SMS. You may be inadvertently agreeing to receive promotional texts, etc. No biggie if you're on an unlimited text plan, but for those that are limited in number (or just don't want the hassle), worth looking into.
