    Hi!

    I'm searching for SMS prices that mobile operators charge you in your country.
    I would appreciate if you could reply in this topic from which country you're from and how much do your mobile operator charge you for sending SMS inside your county. And how much if you send it abroad.

    Thank you!

    Why don't you go to telcos website to check the rate?

    Have you tried Skype for International SMS? I guess they give cheaper rates per text message to cell phones in all destinations.

    Skype SMS to my Country is more expensive.
    Skype charges 9cents, average mobile operators price is 5cents.
    And my operator has a flat rate for SMS to all Countries (or so they say, I only tested it to UK).

    Err... the rate I mentioned is already converted to USD. So that will be around 0.015€.

    International SMS rate is around 0.12€.

    10p to 12p for UK on a normal price plan. International will depend on the country which your sending it to, for example to Spain would be 24p .
