I do not understand. If your cell phone can send and receive text messages, and the other person can as well, it really does NOT matter where the other person IS. If they are connected to the network, they will get the text message regardless of their actual physical location. That is the way cell phones WORK, point to point communication regardless of origin location and regardless of destination location. So, I do not understand, if you have their phone number and they and you are within range of a tower, why this would not work... unless you have the wrong number, of course...

You have to add international long distance service to your account. It gives your phone the ability to make overseas calls. The number is 1-800-331-0500.
