Hi,

wondering does anyone know why I can’t text a Republic of Ireland mobile number when I’m in the Republic of Ireland?

I can’t text when I’m in the UK but not when I’m in the Republic of Ireland.

I can ring the number and my data works but can’t text a southern number.

do I need a bolt on or something?

@CGR 

The only thing I can think of is if you are using the correct number format with the country code?

Thanks for replying! But I can ring the number no problem when I myself am in the Republic of Ireland! Just for some reason I can’t text them?
