    If you are taking your UK mobile and number with you, they just text you as normal. You would need to add the international access code + the UK country code (44), then leave out the first 0 of their number to text back, its much easier if you replace the 0 at the start of their numbers in your phone book with +44 , that way you just text them as normal, no matter what country you are in.

    So if their number was 07966 xxx xxx, store the number as +447966 xxx xxx, works in UK as normal, but saves hassle anywhere else you visit. The + is usually found with a long press on the 0 key or * key, or perhaps repeated presses of either of these keys.
