Text message to South Korea

CrazyIndianZA

Not quite a moneysaving question but hoping this gets the widest audience.

I need to send text messages to a sibling in South Korea but for some reason he is not getting them. I can get his text messages but he doesn't get mine.

I'm pretty sure it is not a problem with my phone (N85) or provider (Vodaphone) as I send messages to family/friends in the US, Europe and South Africa.

Anyone have any experience of this ?

Hello CrazyIndianZA

I'll move your thread to the 'Techie Stuff' board where it should get some responses from the techie experts.

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

I don't know if it's anything to do with this but I saw an item on BBC world news yesterday saying that a telecoms cable had been severed just off Alexandria and tis would seriously disrupt all telecoms traffic to the far east until some time around Christmas. It included mobile phones. (I must admit I thought it was all done by satellite)
