Hey
Â
Yes, iD Mobile would charge you for international usage as on the table shown below
Â
Â
Bare in mind that your "International" feature would need to be turned on before you can use it. You can manage it in your iD Mobile App under "Services" tab.Â
Below is screenshot of how it looks like to help you find it.

Kind Regards

Hello
Â
Sorry to hear that. Whilst it may not be the answer you were hoping for, it is the correct answer, as we do not provide free texts to USA.

I hope that I'm able to help with this.
So for a UK number, we have 11 digit numbers.
For calling UK numbers from abroad, we'd apply the UK Dial code +44.
So this would be for example +441234567890 where the +44 replaces the 0 at the beginning of the number.
For USA numbers, you just need to ad +1 before the number.
Can you try adding +1 before the number and then sending the text again?
If the number was 555 123 4567 you'd text +1 555 123 4567
(forgive me if I got the mobile number format wrong here).
