Cellphone text to UK phone when UK phone in canada
Cellphone text to UK number when UK phone is in Canada
it doesn't work! They don't receive the text but they can text me. I can text them when they are in the UK.
This has happened before with different phones.
Any idea? Cousin is somewhere in Pearson hellhole

Re: Cellphone text to UK phone when UK phone in canada
Hopefully you met up eventually! I remember having similar issues a few years ago with texting/calls to the UK - it wasn’t a consistent issue and I never worked out the problem. Things got more sophisticated with iMessage and What’s App, so I always use those now with family and friends back home. And some of them are charged for international texts anyway, so it’s more economical.
