TXT out-of-country (US)

good morning
I am trying message friends in Belize, country code (501) and the 1 (for US) is automatically being added to string.
I am using a galaxy S5 mini model SM-G00H

My prior cell was a iphone 5 and this issue did not come up.

Thanks for your help

If let me say that I am not a very savvy user, just enough to get myself in trouble/

This phone is not loaded with ATT crap, but rather a direct from factory phone this is why I thought
there is something on the phone (samsung) software that should be changed or overriden.
I was also on att with my iphone 5 and this was not a problem.

Where am I in error?

thank you

try using the official Google Messenger Text/SMS/MMS App -

also - delete the Contact and add it again to your Contacts list. also you could try manually entering the phone number to text.

good luck.
