If you have been able to call this number, but text messages don't get sent here are some possible reasons:<br /> -the two cellular networks are not using the same technology and texting is often a problem in this case (<a href="http://www.howtocallabroad.com/qa/texting.html">more info here</a>)<br /> -you do not have international texting activated</p> <p>Calling your wireless provider to inquire about this generally helps. </p> http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/topic/wish-to-make-a-mobile-to-mobile-call-from-australia-to-ghana#post-707 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 03:09:46 +0000 suetadams 707@http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/ <p>Hello Dan,<br /> Thanks for your assistance...I have been given this number +2347056366??? to make a call or send text messages to Ghana....but they are not being received.</p> <p>Can you please advise me on the correct number (in its entirety), so I can get the calls through?<br /> Wuth thanks<br /> Sue </p> http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/topic/intnerational-directory-assitance#post-706 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:39:42 +0000 twainscott 706@http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/ <p>How would I reach intnerational directory assitance (from the US) in Paris France? </p> http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/topic/calling-within-thailand#post-704 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 07:04:27 +0000 admin 704@http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/ <p>Hi Magdalena,</p> <p>Thailand's phone system is a closed one meaning they don't use area codes. On our webpage providing Thai calling info we list "starting digits" for main cities in Thailand. These are not considered area codes.
