Does anyone know how much it costs approx to send a text message to a spanish mobile, (not a UK mobile in Spain but a Spanish number) on the o2 network?

I sent texts to Movistar from my One2One mobile (I was in Spain at the time though) and it cost me about 30p per message... ouch! Reply texts only came through while I had my network as Movistar... I couldn't receive texts whilst any other networks were selected.

This was 2 years ago though!

You're probably best of calling your network and ask them!

I know that its 20p from the UK to another network that is not UK on T-Mobile, and most networks seem to charge around the same, just send a few and see how much the cost you on the bill, or see how much your credit drops. or call Customer Services

Or you can send them for free using vaurious services in spain...
