I've just come back from Italy where I was unable to send text messages to England. I was receiving texts but couldn't send them (error '0'). It was very inconvenient and I have never had problems with texting from abroad. I want to avaid it in future and understand why it happened.

@GA23 

Could be many reasons.

Some things to try:
Manually search for another network
Reboot the phone
Turn off 5g in network settings

Some Italian networks have switched off 3g too.
If you have an iPhone change your data APN to "mobile.o2.co.uk"

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
