Other Features or Restrictions

Delivery Receipts

Delivery receipts are not reliable in Israel, so should not be used as an indicator of successful or unsuccessful delivery to the handset.

Kosher Phone Numbers

SMS cannot be delivered to kosher phone numbers.

Kosher phones and networks are essentially phones with Haredi rabbinical approval that can be used for communication without entertainment functionality or connectivity. This is a line that has a predefined prefix and it is blocked to content that Haredi activists feel is not appropriate for their community. Such blocking includes cellular internet access, chat rooms, SMS, etc. It should not be imputed that other phones are not kosher according to Jewish law, as evidenced by the fact that many observant Orthodox Jews worldwide do not restrict themselves to kosher phones; rather the description kosher phones is a loose description implying an added level of stringency accepted by some communities.

Some mobile plans include a large allocation of minutes to kosher numbers, which are:

• 050 41X XXXX - Pelephone
• 052 71X XXXX - Cellcom, second range
• 052 76X XXXX - Cellcom, first range
• 054 84X XXXX - Orange
