Since you've recieved SMS in Greek whilst in Greece you obviously have the Greek writing in your phone.
Sounds to me like this is has to do with your network provider. Their system can't translate the Greek letters so you better ask your mate to write in English or use "ordernary" letters instead.
You can contact your network and ask them if there is anything they can, or are willing to, do. They might add Greek to their system when they get the request (if you are lucky ).

Sounds like you are pretty stuck unless you buy a phone that are in their records.
