No logic to it is there - maybe it also depends which provider in the UK is involved.

Re: vodaphone/texting uk
That explains so much. I am with virgin mobile and have not received any messages recently, thought my friends in Uk and Ireland had abandoned me. tonight I received a new years message sent on 31 Dec, just arrived to my phone at about 8pm. i guess its understandable but its horrible to think of what has caused the problems, I feel so depressed about the tsunami and the devastation its caused.
