Python: Script to send SMS on International numbers?

I am using the below script for sending SMS, but I am always getting the error message "Check your internet connection". Is there any working python script for waytosms or for any other service,which I can use to send SMS on international numbers.

#!/usr/bin/python

import cookielib
import urllib2
from getpass import getpass
import sys
from urllib import urlencode
from getopt import getopt

ask_username = True
ask_password = True
ask_message = True
ask_number = True

def Usage():
    print '\t-h, --help:  View help'
    print '\t-u, --username: Username'
    print '\t-p, --password: Password'
    print '\t-n, --number: numbber to send the sms'
    print '\t-m, --message: Message to send'
    sys.exit(1)


opts, args = getopt(sys.argv[1:], 'u:p:m:n:h',["username=","password=","message=","number=","help"])

for o,v in opts:
    if o in ("-h", "--help"):
        Usage()
    elif o in ("-u", "--username"):
        username = v
        ask_username = False
    elif o in ("-p", "--password"):
        passwd = v
        ask_password = False
    elif o in ("-m", "--message"):
        message = v
        ask_message = False
    elif o in ("-n", "--number"):
        number = v
        ask_number = False

#Credentials taken here
if ask_username: username = raw_input("Enter USERNAME: ")
if ask_password: passwd = getpass()
if ask_message: message = raw_input("Enter Message: ")
if ask_number: number = raw_input("Enter Mobile number: ")

#Logging into the SMS Site
url = 'http://wwwg.way2sms.com//auth.cl'
data = 'username='+username+'&password='+passwd+'&Submit=Sign+in'

#Remember, Cookies are to be handled
cj = cookielib.CookieJar()
opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))

# To fool way2sms as if a Web browser is visiting the site
opener.addheaders = [('User-Agent','Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20091020 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.3 GTB7.0')]
try:
    usock = opener.open(url, data)
except IOError:
    print "Check your internet connection"
    sys.exit(1)

#urlencode performed.. Because it was done by the site as i checked through HTTP headers

message = urlencode({'message':message})
message = message[message.find("=")+1:]

#SMS sending
send_sms_url = 'http://wwwg.way2sms.com//FirstServletsms?custid='
#Check this line with HTTP Headers, if script is not working
send_sms_data = 'custid=undefined&HiddenAction=instantsms&Action=custfrom950000&login=&pass=&MobNo='+number+'&textArea='+message
opener.addheaders = [('Referer','http://wwwg.way2sms.com//jsp/InstantSMS.jsp?val=0')]

try:
    sms_sent_page = opener.open(send_sms_url,send_sms_data)
    inp = open("log.html","w")
    inp.write(sms_sent_page.read())
    inp.close()

except IOError:
    print "Check your internet connection( while sending sms)"
    sys.exit(1)
print "SMS sent!!!"

Please suggest me the SMS service for which I can get the python script also.

DailySMS is gone. The script has been updated to use Solinked: http://pastebin.com/21yft50r

But please don't overuse it or they can shut down too.

My free solution uses DailySMS form and works on most countries:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Free worldwide SMS sending script using DailySMS API.
# By Multiversum

import sys
import requests

forge_user_agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/536.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1084.56 Safari/536.5'
script_url = 'http://www.uthsms.net/api/index.php'
forge_headers = {
    'Origin' : 'http://www.uthsms.net',
    'Connection' : 'keep-alive',
    'User-Agent' : forge_user_agent,
    'Content-Type' : 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
    'Referer' : script_url,
}

def sendsms(destphone, smsbody):
    resp = requests.post(script_url, {'phone': destphone, 'hyderabad': smsbody}, headers=forge_headers)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    if len(sys.argv) < 3:
        print "Usage: dailysms [num in international format without +] [message]"
    else:
        sendsms(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2])
        print "Message sent"

Twilio is highly recommended.

This code uses Twilio to send a text message:

from twilio.rest import TwilioRestClient

account = "getFromYourTwilioDashboard"
token   = "getFromYourTwilioDashboard"
client  = TwilioRestClient(account, token)

message = client.sms.messages.create(to="+yourCellNumber", from_="+yourTwilioNumber", body="Message here")

This is not free but is easy-to-use and reliable.

You can try twilio and there is official python code also provided as in below link. But this is not free service so you can see the pricing.
