Hi. Does anyone know why i cant send of receive sms text messages to my friend in japan. I have tried the code +81 and dleteing the first 0 of here Vodfone japan number, but she isn't able to recieve. She has a WAP phone, is this maybe the problem, or maybe a problem with Vodafone Japan. I am on 02 here in the UK. Thanks a lot. Leanne.

Hi leanne, I think your problem is due to japan using different phone networks methods than the rest of the world. Japan have a very advanced mobile technology, which means we cant use normal GSM phones from Europe or R.O.T.W. I am trying to find a website that allows this service.... until Vodafone set up a GSM network out there, which should be very soon! HTH.
