    how's it goin'.

    i am currently with meteor (087 number), was with vodafone for a number of years (7 i think). anyway, i am a texter more so than a talker. so i have the 150 sms messages as an add-on on my monthly plan.

    ok. so my question is: do you think that either of the big 3 networks (vodafone, o2 and meteor) would ever think of introducing internation text bundles as well ? i do txt mates of mine in the uk and france using web based applications. i know o2 allow people to send sms through the webtext. however, i would like to be able to do it from my mobile.

    do any of the networks do this in the uk or mainland europe ?

    just thought i would ask.....thanks in advance for the all the replies.

    I take it you're on Meteor BillPay? I have a Meteor prepay on some kind of international deal (aimed at East Europeans) -but it does have the hidden advantage of allowing all non-national SMS for a reasonable 15 cent.

    God be with the days when SMS was described as the 'killer app' by the CEO of Vodafone UK allowing messages 'to be delivered all round the world for the one simple tariff of 10p (15c) per message'.
