Hi,
All the info can be found on this page. If you want to add some more details please reply to this post (numbers you’ve been dialing with no success, etc).

Hi, wait a minute, will tell what’s going on!

So, I wanna send a text message to Mexico. To Mexico City.
It’s +521 and 10-digit mobile phone.
It’s not just +52 because I’ve read that you have to add “1” to mobile phones.
1) When I was trying to call the number with +521 the person I was calling to heard me calling. When I was trying to send an SMS to +521 it can’t be sent.
2) When I was trying to call the number with just +52 there was some Mexican operator telling me something in Spanish. And when I was trying to send SMS just to +52 it didn’t show me “message can’t be sent” but also the person didn’t get it.
🙁 🙁
I’m so confused, please help! Will be grateful to death!

And one more thing to point 1):
person could hear me calling but not my number appeared (Polish with +48) but some strange Mexican one!
What’s going on 🙁

Indeed you must add 1 after Mexico’s country code 52. You must also add Mexico City’s area code which is 55. But anyway, if you could connect then you are dialing the right digits. Texting should work the same way. If it doesn’t work it’s either because your current plan doesn’t allow international texting, or there is an incompatibility between the two wireless networks (yours and the one in Mexico). In any case I would call my wireless provider to inquire about this.

One other option you can try is to replace the starting plus sign with 00.

Kind regards,
