Hi, my friend is currently in America, we both have pay monthly contracts with unlimited texts on O2, how much will it cost me to text and receive messages from him while he is away?

I have just seen this  I am on a pay monthly contract with unlimited texts and calls and yet I have been charged 0.54p for every text I have sent my cousin in the states. So what is going on?

@Catie_b 

It's only free if you are texting a UK number in the USA.

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

@Catie_b If you and your cousin download Whatsapp you can call, text, and video call each other over WiFi for free wherever you are.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
