Orange Dolphin package texting abroad?
I am on the Orange Dolphin package and am confused about texting to someone abroad. I have 300 free texts but will I still get charged for texting abroad (egypt)? If so, how much?

I think it just uses up more texts to the value of the texts, but it would be 20p if you have no texts.

Most of the so called free things from any of the networks only apply when sent to other phones in this country and not when sent outside the UK. The same applies then the phone is used abroad and messages are sent from your phone while there.
They cost more and are either added to your bill or if on payg, taken from your credit.
Some of the networks send you a message now & again while you are abroad to let you know the rate you would be charged (like 3 did for me while in Tenerife last week).
Your internet, minutes and texts are for you to use in the UK only. Using your phone abroad can be rather expensive.You could buy an internet bundle, call 150 and speak to orange, they will tell you how much it costs.
Unfortunately you will be charged at standard rates which is 20p a go they don't do any deals that use extra texts from allowances to compensate, you can check full terms for calling/texting abroad here
