Number format

How do I write Puerto Rico numbers for a bulk SMS list?

Write numbers for Puerto Rico in international format: the calling code +1 first, then the national number. If people in Puerto Rico dial a domestic trunk prefix such as 0 at the start, leave it out after the calling code. A number written this way looks like +1 787 555 0000. Spaces and dashes are fine; the console removes them when it reads your list.

Language

Which alphabet do recipients in Puerto Rico read?

Most recipients in Puerto Rico read Spanish. Text without special letters fits GSM-7 at 160 characters per segment, but á, í, ó and ú are outside that alphabet and switch the whole message to UCS-2 at 70 characters per segment. Writing those letters without accents, or keeping the text short, keeps a campaign at one segment.
