Hi
From Ph to UK, its best to buy a prepaid card, TEXTWISE or similar cards. Text costs only P5/text vs the usual P15/text from SMART & GLOBE to any network in UK like ORANGE or VODA. Still another cheap way of communicating is letting your girl from PH log on to yahoo messenger while you, in UK, are using PC. It costs only P2.50/message to and from.A couple i know bought his GLOBE sim here in Ph and had it "roaming" and brought it there in UK. His girl here in Ph also uses the same network.That costs them P1/text both ways. I hope it helps somehow.
