Cost to text a UK 07 Number in Spain

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

I have been texting Spain for the last week and I was wondering how much it cost? Nothing has appeared in my O2 app or billing page. The two numbers are 07 UK based phones (one is EE and the other is Vodafone).

 

Thanks,

Em

If you are in the UK and are texting another UK number it will cost the same as if they were sitting next to you or it will be free if you have a text allowance.
Texts are also free to receive anywhere but will cost if you are abroad and texting back home on a UK sim card.

20 pence per text: http://international.o2.co.uk/internationaltariffs/calling_abroad_from_uk

 

Unless you use an International sim when it's 14 pence.

To UK based numbers it's the same as if you were at home.

Which is why it is so 'cheap' with my unlimited text allowance :smileywink:Also as most of my family are with O2 they can ring me when in Spain and it will be free for them (50p for me...but for an hour that isn't bad at all in my opinion) Though I do find I use Messenger over WiFi a heck of a lot more now)

Calling or texting a UK number anywhere in the world is exactly the same as texting and calling them in this country. However anyone receiving a call in Spain will pay o2 travel rates or other network rates if not on o2.
