Does your land line phone display texts? Here in the UK if the receiving phone isn't a text-enabled model they get an automated voice instead. Not sure how convenient that would be for an activation link :)

No it doesn't.

Then if you get a computerised voice reading a link to you it may be a little difficult to follow....

...or you may just not get the message at all. Check your phone co.'s website to see how/if they handle text messaging to a landline before you give it a go.

That would work I think; thanks.
Edit: Nope didn't work.

Try sending yourself a text to test how it would work (or phone someone with better cel coverage than you and ask them to).

I thought for a bit it wasn't going to work. Microsoft indicated that I hadn't registered (or something like that) my Windows 10. Anyways after a few mouse clicks came across hardware change question; replied yes and Bob's your uncle I was activated; no phone call or communication required. Thanks all.
