    what is your service provider? if you have sprint, nextel, verizon, i dont know if you can send international txt message but if you have t-mo, cingular, at&t? yes you can send txt masaging to mexico. telcel is a gsm network and at&t, cingular, and t-mo are gsm. just replace 011 with plus (+) let say + country code, city code and tel. number don't put 011 if you sending a txt international or just in the u.s. sending message to gsm to gsm is o.k. but gsm to tdma or cdma it may go thru but it takes time before it go thru because of the diff messaging format of all this provider. in doing alot of txt messaging all over the world especially in the philipines.

    I have Cingular and a GSM phone but haven't been successfull sending them to Mexico. I have received them from there but can't send. I have even tried replying back and it hasn't worked. I contacted Cingular and they said that they haven't added Mexico yet but I thought maybe someone on here new of a way to do it. It doesn't make any sense that I can receive them from there but can't send back. I have tried with the 011 and with the + and still no luck. DARN IT!!

    o.k. try send in this format. instead of 011 try this (+) country code, zip code and tel number. no way that you cannot send to mexico txt massaging. im doing alot of txt messaging to england, spain, taiwan, canada, and not having problem with it. if you have a friend who have t-mo. just barrow the phone and send txt massage. t-mo is the best when it comes to sending txt.

    Cingular does not have good agreements with international companies. I have had problems with Cingular and others on the net have problems with text messaging. cingular sucks on this matter !!!!!!

    Text messages to Telcel in Mexico

    hi, i came across this thread searching for information on how to send text messages to telcel (mexico). i've successfully sent tm's from my cell phone (Verizon service) but it costs $.25 each time. btw, i use 01152 + the number.

    My question is how to EMAIL a text message to a TelCel customer? I know I can receive them with [email protected], or by going through the Verizon website.

    I've been unable to make the TelCel website's text messager work. I don't speak Spanish, but I think it's telling me that the person i'm trying to message doesnt have that service (which they do).

    Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

    I'm not with a GSM carrier per say, but I have a good recommendation for you all:

    Phone your service provider and ask.

    The customer service reps in the call centres are trained in issues such as this, and they will be able to tell you how to proceed based on the country you're trying to text.

    Wow, this information was very hard to find, and my Spanish is a little rusty. Try this mms email address, I can't promise this will work but if I found it in a mexican cell phone forum site and I think they said this is the right address to use

    [email protected]

    Let us know if this works, I am interested in finding out!

    Try sending it from your computer on their service providers web page. It should go through and it is free.
