    Bye bye membership SMS pins

    They are not removing the option of SMS pins, they are changing the carrier. It used to be Surfpin, now it's Paymo. The difference is that Paymo will send a verification message which will stop online fraud in chat rooms etc.

    Despite what many people are claiming, Sythe pin prices will not be affected by this. Although there are a few UK SMS pins out there, the majority on Sythe are Australian PBP. They are not removing these. This is because they are obtained via pinlines by a select few and circulated throughout all the black-markets.

    Pin lines will get closed soon and Jagex will make Paymo option for Australia and will close Australia sms option and maybe phone one.

    Pin sales are mostly Aus PBP, I don't think it's going to effect the pin market at all so I don't think it will make a difference in their sales.

    I don't think this is a smart move from jagex seeing as most pins come from SMS.

    Isn't that why they added Paymo?
    To be honest, I like SMS better than Paymo but now I can actually buy pins with Paymo since it supports T-mobile.

    So howcome if you still text hd to 64337 you get a message saying the usual message to get membership? Because I just tried it and it comes up with the usual message, it just doesnt say what to text when you're under sms pins option

    ^ this.

    How does removing the SMS pin for a bunch of countries broaden their sales?
