If she's in the UK then the charge to her should be the same nomatter where he is. If she has internet access from a PC, there are a number of sites where you can send at least some free texts. Otherwise get her a tariff with a number of bundled texts

Sorry to be rude about this, but you've started 4 threads about this now.

If 2p a message isn't cheap enough, then perhaps you need another solution

On the other thread - see https://www.smsbug.com

- depending on your tariff, the network may charge for wap/gprs use

Other people suggested free ones from websites etc

I haven't tried it, but seen it recommended several times, and nothing negative said.

You can register your phone on the O2 website, even a non-customer, and get some free texts, but I don't know if it is once or per month

System

get ITS on o2, i get 10p per txt to any country

Its lets you send text at normal rate which is 12p on contract 10p on payg. It's 2.99 extra if you're on anything less than 30pound a month on contract. Not sure how much it is on payg though.

Just back from Hong Kong. Using a Tesco sim in UK to a Tesco sim in Hong Kong costs 5p to one of your 3 'favourites'. Not to Tesco 'Value' sim though which cannot be used abroad. Should be the same price to Germany.

forget smsbug, their java application does not work, stuck in registration stage at the moment and no techical support! so redux that is not a solution.
