    Hi Toby,

    The webtext functionality does not extend to international texts, only to messages to numbers within the Republic of Ireland. However you can view all of our add-on's here: http://www.emobile.ie/phonesplansmore/addons/.

    Hope this helps,

    Steve

    Are emobile going to include international webtexts in the future?Think all other providers include them.
    Or even have an international text add-on??

    Hi Toby,

    This may be in the pipeline for the future however I couldn't say for certain. If we do update this I will let you know.

    Hi Toby,

    USA & Canada

    Calls to mobile & landlines are 20c


    Australia & New Zealand

    Calls to mobile & landlines are 30c

    In general, International Texts are 15c on PAYG and 20c on Bill Pay.

    Hope this helps,

    Steve

    Just one more question-would I have to sign up to the international add on(€10 per month) to avail of those international text rates?Or would I just get charged 15c every time I text USA?

    Nope these are standard rates so you don't need the add-on to avail of them!

    You can view them here:
