Sending text to none uk mobile abroad- with inclusive text

sweetp0707

All my family live in Denmark and I regular send text to them. I am currently with 'Three' on a contract with 300 minutes and text which is due to end in October 09. All my text to Denmark are currently outside my inclusive text and I think I pay 15p. As I'm due to change contact I would really like to have the texts to Denmark within my package. O2 offer a deal where 1 text to abroad is counted as 4 text but as far as I can see this is only a deal to UK numbers abroad? Anybody know of any other networks who offer this or what is the cheapest way to do it (I don't want to send via Internet as I will be out and about) I currently pay £15 per month and don't really want to pay much more.

Many Thanks

You can use mobile phone internet to send International Text messages.
I use FishText, they charge just 1.33p per text to Denmark.

Have a look here:

Another option would be to send your family in Denmark a UK sim card.

I'm not sure if my mobile is java and data compatable, its a pretty basic model. I will try to ring 'Three'. Can the person who receive the text see it has been sent from fishtext.

It would be so much easier if it could be part of the inclusive package, I don't understand why none of the networks do this

With Fishtext it just looks like a normal text from your number to the person receiving it.
I guessed that you might be getting a new phone if your contract is up.

Actually some do, my price plan on T-Mobile does include international calls and texts as part of my allowance.

Which priceplan are you on with T-mobile? I don't really want to pay more than £20 er month as I don't use it that much

I'm on flext40, if you can find someone who works at T-Mobile to help out with a Friends and Family recommendation it would actually cost £20 (normal priceplan is £40 per month) and gives an allowance of £220 to use as you want, includes UK calls 01,02,03,08 and texts and MMS to any destination as well as international landline and mobile.
