Problem with texting abroad

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi there!

 

I am in Greece and my text messages to UK numbers are not being sent. I have topped up my phone 2 hours ago, and also used the +44 code.

Currently, I'm on Pay and Go Go, with 5000 texts, 150 minutes and 500MB, 10 pounds. 

Could you please help me with this problem?

Many thanks,

 

Kind regards

It may also be that the local network being used has its own issues.
