Texting American phone in Europe

Hello,

I'm a Verizon customer in the US and my friend with a US number on a different carrier who is in Europe for a month. They bought an international text message bundle so they are able to send/receive texts from their phone. I'm wondering what the costs to me will be to text this American number in Europe, both for sending and receiving. I have an unlimited text message plan.

Also, we both have iPhones, and they'll have wifi access at times. I assume there's no charge for sending an iMessage, correct? And theoretically, if we only communicated via that, it would be free for both of us?

Thanks!

Hi baknewman,  I apologize for the delay as I understand this was time sensitive while your friend was traveling.  As you will be texting a United States mobile number there will be no extra charges.  Also, iMessage will just use your standard data allowance and will not have any international charges.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns.

Thank you,
