How can I access SMS messages when no service

ExmoorMobile
Explorer

We have been without a signal since Tuesday morning (now Friday afternoon): Status Checker email messages just keep saying "this is taking us longer to fix than we thought".

Is there any way I can access SMS messages over the Internet as there could be medical notifications which I could do with seeing.

Otherwise I have to drive to the next village where there is a signal: not too far but a pain to have to keep doing.

No, to receive SMS you need a mobile signal.
