I am so excited to announce this fun, new feature! For those of you that don’t want to miss a HOT deal, I’ve got a great announcement for you (you can still get updates immediately via Facebook here too)! You can now get the HOTTEST, time sensitive deals from Raining Hot Coupons sent right to your cell phone via text message!
It’s very easy to sign up for…All you need to do is send a text message to 40404 saying “Follow RainingCoupon” (note: there is no “S” at the end). You will then get a text message back letting you know you are signed up (this can take a few minutes)! You do not need to have a Twitter account to use the service and it is completely FREE!
Just so you know, this will NOT send you all the deals….only the HOTTEST, time sensitive ones and will be used sparingly. You can also cancel at anytime.
Standard text messaging cell phone rates apply, but this service is 100% FREE!

GmaLeena says
March 7, 2011 at 9:47 pmSo far all I’m getting is that I need a twitter account ;( will wait and see
Rita says
October 14, 2014 at 5:21 pmME TOO!!
DANA says
March 8, 2011 at 8:43 amdoes it cost anything to do this?
Raining Hot Coupons says
March 17, 2011 at 4:54 pmNope! =) It’s free, but standard text messaging rates do apply. It seems like most people have unlimited texting these days so then it wouldn’t cost a thing.
Katina says
March 17, 2011 at 8:32 pmI signed up on my BB and it went through right away. I already got a “HOT” deal 🙂 Thanks!!
Lynne S. says
March 18, 2011 at 2:41 amI don’t do it cuz I don’t have unlimited texts.
DANA says
March 19, 2011 at 5:37 pmi did the text and it said welcome to twitter reply w/ sign up to begin? does that mean i will receive them now since you stated we did not need twitter?
Sherry says
April 21, 2011 at 4:00 pmI’m wondering the same. I got the text but do I need to do the “sign up” thing? Tha
nks!
Jordan says
June 27, 2013 at 11:19 amWhat do I do now? Got the reply saying “welcome to twitter. Follow people for great content. Already on Twitter? Reply with Yes to sign in.
So, will I automatically get the hot deal updates or what? I’m really confused. I dno’t want a twitter.
Suzanne Walters says
November 23, 2013 at 11:14 pmI got the same reply mssg too!! They need to fix this problem…
DANA says

angela says

Crystal says
April 27, 2011 at 1:28 pmI have signed up twice – I get the reply message along with the most recent messages but then I never get the new ones . . anyone else have this problem??
Tina says
June 1, 2011 at 2:54 pmsame thing; got messages the first and second day and then nothing since.
Nichelle says
April 28, 2011 at 10:26 amgot an instant response saying “welcome to twitter! reply w/ signup to begin. Already on twitter? Reply with your username.”
do i need to respond to any of this? i’m not on twitter and don’t want to sign up for it. if i just don’t reply, do i still get the texts?
Lizzie says
April 28, 2011 at 5:04 pmI keep signing up and get it once – right after I sign up. Then I never get it again. Maybe I should sign up for a Twitter account?
Crystal says
April 28, 2011 at 6:23 pmThat’s what happens with me . . .
Lizzie says
May 4, 2011 at 2:33 pmI just signed up for a Twitter account. I’m going to see if it works for me now.
Keely says
May 3, 2011 at 8:46 pmIt said I need a twitter accountant grrrr
Aracely says
May 5, 2011 at 6:15 amYesterday I didn’t receive a text for the Gillette Razor. Did you announce via text? If so: in order for me to receive text again. Do I need to send another text to 40404?
crystal says
May 7, 2011 at 4:36 pmGot it! Thanks!!!
Tammy says
May 11, 2011 at 12:58 pmYea, you do need Twitter. Basically, what you are doing is following them on Twitter and receiving the tweets via text message. Easy to set up a Twitter account tho- and if RHC are the only ones you follow, you won’t be loaded down with spam. It’s a great thing!! Thanks so much guys!! 🙂
Tammy says
May 12, 2011 at 11:42 amThank you!!
Thrisa says
May 12, 2011 at 10:51 amI am now following RainingCoupon 😉 YAY!! lol
Raining Hot Coupons says

Tammy says

Theresa says

Heather Patterson says

Sgt's Wife says
May 17, 2011 at 4:16 pmYeah!! I am now following Raining Hot Coupons=) Cant wait to receive the hottest deal alerts!
Teresa says
May 17, 2011 at 5:57 pmI signed up for this a few days ago and I got the confirmation msg but haven’t gotten any further txt alerts. . .what’s up w/ that? lol Oh well, trying again. . .
Terra says
May 23, 2011 at 2:45 pmI’ve signed up! Looks like it’s working. 🙂
Tina says
June 1, 2011 at 2:56 pmAlong with several other people on this thread, I’m wondering why we get texts the first day or two and then never again? Can we get an answer? Does anyone else consistently get texts after signing up once?
Mechelle says
June 3, 2011 at 9:50 amHello,
Unfortunately I need to know how to stop the text messages. Had to change my text package and don’t have as many to spare. 🙁 thanks…
Stacy Puckett says
July 13, 2013 at 1:14 pmYou should only have to Text “STOP” to get off the list
Jaime Davis Dobson says
June 18, 2011 at 2:35 pmYea I am already
Signed up and I am getting an error message too…:(
Terri says
July 5, 2011 at 12:48 amText me
Nicole says
July 6, 2011 at 3:14 pmHi! Everytime I do this, I will receive alerts for a few days, but then they will stop coming and I will have to re text. Any idea why this happens?
Doreen says
July 12, 2011 at 6:24 pmI signed up but never got a confirmation or anything.
Jessica says
August 3, 2011 at 9:33 pmI don’t understand why it says that you don’t need a Twitter account, if you do??? AND I also don’t understand why noone will answer our questions??? I just read through all the comments, and there are some that date back to Feb. and they have yet to be answered…
kelsey says
November 8, 2011 at 8:09 amI just signed up and got my first alert right away not sure why your having an issue maybe your doing it wrong?
Maria Herpin says
August 21, 2011 at 12:23 pmI just signed up, got my confirmation text right away, and also within the first minute got my first deal alert. Don’t understand why it’s not working for you guys??? Worked great for me!!!
Becky says
September 21, 2011 at 12:23 pmI just signed up as well and it worked and I received my confirmation already as well.
Doreen says
September 24, 2011 at 4:26 pmI’ve been receiving msg’s for a while now but I need to cancel because I don’t get the msg’s till the end of my work day so it doesn’t do me good then. Sadly, I need to cancel.
Doreen says
September 24, 2011 at 4:27 pmI tried to cancel by sending a text: stop rainingcoupon to 40404. Is that right? If not, please let me know how to cancel. Thanks! Of course, I still enjoy reading your site on the web! One of my fav’s. 🙂
Lisa says
November 1, 2011 at 6:49 pmI got a message saying they can’t find that person. I spelled it exactly how it said.:(
Deborah says
November 1, 2011 at 8:19 pmIt said I had to have a Twitter account which I already had. When I texted my twitter info back it said it’s been a while, let’s start over, create a new account. I don’t want to create a new Twitter account. Help! Is there suppose to be quotes around “Raining HotCoupons” and is there suppose to be a space between
Deborah says
November 1, 2011 at 8:21 pmoops, between ‘Hot’ & ‘Coupon’ because your info didn’t have a space.
Jody Hardy says
November 1, 2011 at 9:37 pmNo quotes and no hot, just…….. Follow RainingCoupon (no space between raining & coupon). Hope that helps! 🙂
Julia Hodges says
November 3, 2011 at 7:15 pmAlso have to make sure to capitalize the “c” in Coupon and no space either.
Karen Waters says
July 14, 2013 at 1:55 pmWrong, yep it is definitely Raining Hotcoupon, exactly as spelled. I had to resign up with Twitter, but I don’t care as I hadn’t used it before anyway.. So I resigned up with a new twitter account name, submitted it and sent words Raining Hotcoupon and now nothing, but at least no error messages etc.
Cami says
November 13, 2011 at 12:20 amI tried to sign up for the text deals and it told me “Hi there, you were signing up for Twitter, but it’s been a while since we heard from you, so let’s start over. reply w/signup or username to begin
herbalife says
January 5, 2012 at 10:05 pmI will try and sign up and hope that I don’t get an error message too.
vicki says
October 9, 2012 at 8:56 pmHow do I stop the raininghot text messages?
Gale says
November 1, 2012 at 11:27 amI did it wrong the first time and got the Twitter message too. You have to type it in exactly like this:
Follow RainingCoupon
I did that again and got a confirmation right away.
LINDA says
November 29, 2012 at 7:48 amYay!!! I don’t always get updates from fb, now I’ll get everything again…thank you..I got confirmation right away 😉
Jennie says
December 8, 2012 at 4:12 pmI messed up so many times I at first put the “s” at the end of coupon, then I finally got it because I wasn’t putting a space after “Follow”! I entered Follow RainingCoupon And finally was correct! You need to turn on and activate text notifications in your twitter account first! If you haven’t used this function in awhile they make you turn it on and activate it all over again which I had to do! So after you do that all again then type who you want to follow even if you tried before re-activating it! then it should work! If not idk ask twitter why!? Lol
kj says
February 14, 2013 at 2:36 pmPLEASE UNSUBSCRIBE ME FROM TXT MESSAGES. I AM VERY TIRED OF RECEIVING THEM. I CANNOT FIND HOW TO DO THIS

Brianna says
June 12, 2013 at 12:25 pmI have tried this twice and still no text reply. I have a twitter account so I am not sure what the hold up is. All this did was tweet the text. Please notify us if this issue is ever resolved.
Sherica P. says
