Nice way to gather mobile numbers, not even needed to build a social network first.

We wanted to provide an easy option for users not currently on an iOS device, but only use the number for a 1-time SMS with a link to the Pix listing in the App Store. We do not collect or store the phone numbers, out of respect for user privacy.

I'm in the U.K and I never receive the text, despite saying it has been sent, is it available here?
