Yes I've been trying to text from my mobile,although I don't think it would make any difference if I did use my  land line would it? I know when my mum & her partner were still in the UK they said they had tried to text me also but I never received those text messages so we are  obviously getting our country codes confused somewhere along the line.I've tried texting them several times but with no response ( I really don't think they're ignoring me) !!!!
Ok so next I will try 0011(to get outside Australia) then 44 ( which is very wierd 'cause they're in Spain) then the mobile minus the zero;it is a U.K mobile.
Thanks for your help so far 'cause I'm just baffled.

I'm wondering if someone can help me.
I want to call a mobile number in Torrevieja,Costa Blanca.They're from U.K so the persons service provider would be the same..I think
I know they're able to call the U.K from this mobile while in Spain. Also phone calls have been made from the U.K to this mobile in Spain ,but I can't work out why they can't get through to me as I live in Australia  (unless they just don't want to!!!)
So what country /area code do I need to get through..I've tried 0011 (which is the number to get out of Australia) then 34 ,then knocking off the zero of the mobile number,then the rest of the mobile number but I'm not getting a reply.
I'm able to use my mobile to call U.K so why not Spain.
Thank you
