    Does the O2 txt page give you an error when you try to send international texts? Or do they simply not arrive on the other side?

    Also, just to verify: if you're sending a txt to, eg, the UK, from O2's web page, it's 44.... not 0044....

    I have the same problem.. No error message but some texts are not received. I think the web text form will protest if you put 00 before the country code..

    Well i do text austrailia/Nz and they either dont get recieved or the message is delayed.Somtimes the message is repeated.When i search for the country code (Eg Nz)64 automatically comes up.So i doubt 00 has to go before it.

    European abroad or everywhere?Does the message take ages to be delivered to the other person abroad or same as usual in Ireland?

    I txt UK a lot seems ok. With UK or IRL I get a long delay somedays. I can txt someone in Ireland on O2 in the morning, and they get the message that evening.
