Movistar charges question

I have a question to anyone with a Movistar non-GSM phone (315 area codes):

My girlfriend has this, and she purchases credits/cards to use it (versus paying a monthly account).

How much is she charged to receive my SMS text messages if they are sent to her from my US GSM phone (e.g. 305 area code)? Is the charge different for receiving a SMS text message if I send it from the Movistar.com?

How much is she charged to send a SMS text message to me at my 305 area code GSM number?

Thanks!

If you are sending texts to a mobile in Colombia, you can send them for free using www.ola.com.co/

Mac, I asked about charges to the person receiving the texts, not sending the texts using the website. I asked about charges to a person sending texts from a phone, not from the website.

Santi, thanks for the guess, but it answers which question - sending text from phone to my Miami number, or receiving my texts sent from movistar.com or from my Miami GSM?
