Unable to receive text from some network abroad

Please can any one help.

I moved from 02 to 3 network last July and since when I send text to Nigeria and spain, they receive it but I do not get thier response.

I contacted 3 and they told me it is because they have no partners in Nigeria. However my own text are delivered and I get response from MTN there. I then tried last week with tesco mobile and I have excatly the same issue. However I use to recieve text from all networks when i was still with 02.

O2 is more expensive on my monthly rolling contract hence my move to 3 and now to tesco mobile.

I was in the USA last seek with an H2o Sim and i got text reponses from Nigeria and spain which rules out my Iphone5 handset
