Erdinc,Bursali, arkadaslar: does anyone know of american cell phone co that allows text messages to go thru to cell phones in turkey. Verizon doesnt seem to work either way? Does anyone have any ideas? melissa

Hello Melissa,
You can choose Cingular.I have it and can send text messages to Turkey.There is a charge for it of course.In calls - 10 cents, and out calls for 20 cents. You can get the service then it wil be not very expensive.I think 4-5 dollars a month.I can't do it because do not have that contract but you can get it if you are gonna get new service with Cingular.

Hi, Melissa!
You can also try T-Mobile. For $4.99 a month additionally you have 400 text messages( incoming and outcoming altogether. They also have an option for 600 messages but I don't remeber what was the fee for that one.
