Number format for Seychelles
Mobiles in the Seychelles carry 7 digits after +248 with no trunk 0, so 2 510 123 is sent as +248 2 510 123. Set the Seychelles as the default country and local numbers need no prefix at all.
+248 2 510 123
Alphabet and message length
French uses letters outside GSM-7, such as â, ê, î, ô, û, ç, ë and ï. Any one of them sends the whole text as Unicode, 70 characters per segment and 67 per part. Written without those marks the same text keeps 160 characters per segment, which often cuts a long message to less than half the segments.
Local time in Seychelles
The Seychelles keeps UTC+4 all year, with no clock change. A 09:00 start in Mahe is 05:00 UTC; the console shows both times when you schedule.
