Need help my mother is in mexico on a family emergency but can't text me I told her to dialĀ 001 then d number but no luck
Jessgus,Sorry to hear about the family emergency! Hope all is well. 00 then 1 then the 10 digit U.S. number is correct. Is she using a local carrier to text or did she travel with a Verizon Wireless cellphone? If she is using the local carrier make sure your number is set up to receive international calls and texts and have her reach out to the local carrier if the trouble persists.If she is using her Verizon Wireless cellphone, in order for her to text, the international dial allow would need to be enabled on her line and roaming enabled on the phone. If she needs assistance with setting that up or has it set up already and needs assistance with troubleshooting our global support team can be reached toll-free by following these instructions: http://vz.to/1xSqsvMBrianP_VZWFollow Us on Twitter @VZWSupport
Thanks for answering. She has a verizon wireless phone it's an lg ally we have the mexico/canada plan where would she go on the phone to allow roaming so she can text
Let's check her settings, Jessgus. Please go to Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Network Settings>Data Roaming. Also change "system select" to Automatic. Please let us know if this helps get her back on track. Thanks, MichelleH_VZWFollow us on Twitter @VZWSupport
I will have her do that. Does she have to do anything different for when she is on her way back. Thanks
I'm not sure if the LG Ally is global ready to roam on international carriers like the ones in Mexico.
