If the person you want to text in Portugal has a UK mobile number then the cost will be exactly the same as if they were standing next to you or would come out of your normal allowance. bYour friend in Portugal would receive the text free of any charge.
However if it is a foreign network mobile number then the cost would be 17p + vat on monthly and 20p on P&G.
O2 Travel is for use when travelling in Europe and has no bearing on using the phone in the UK.

It won't cost you if you have inclusive minute allowance either texts or calls. Your son however will be charged roaming costs.

If he has wifi then you could both download TuGo which will cost him nothing to receive calls over wifi.
