How much does it cost to text to the UK from France?

Does it cost extra to send/recieve texts from UK to France?

• I sent my friend a text from the UK and he text back saying he's in France. Did it cost me extra to send/recieve any of these texts?

• Answer:

  That doesn't cost extra when you get a text or when your friend gets one, however it does cost extra when you or your friend send ones, I mean most of the time. It depends on few things: - what are the phone providers of you and your friend ? there are several cases, with some providers you won't pay extra if you send a message to someone having the same provider, sometimes it doesn't matter the provider if it's within Europe...So, hard to tell without knowing the details. - which package do you have? (same question for your friend). And no, it doesn't cost you a lot to send a sms, but it will if you call (it cost double when you call and both of you will pay). ^ ^
