Appointment texts not coming through so quite urgent problem. Previously could receive texts but haven’t been coming through for a couple of weeks.

Tried turning the iPhone on and off!

Same phone and number for years.

    Sounds similar to my problem, do you have a recent ex partner?

    Hi ​@rwilkinson92  sorry to hear this. Is it just certain appointment texts? Have you recently switched to iD? Can you ask the company sending the texts to fully remove your number and re-add it to see if that helps?

    Please let us know how you get on.

    Been with ID for over a year. It’s all sms text messages from medical appointments to courier confirmations, nothings’ coming through.

    Hi there ​@rwilkinson92, sorry to hear that. Is that also normal texts from friends and family for example, or only one-time codes from businesses etc?

     

    Thanks,

    Tyler

    It’s all, I’ve sent “test” text messages successfully but they are marked as “not delivered” on my screen, despite being sent & received by the recipient. I am still not receiving any SMS text messages from anyone.

    Haven’t had a call from ID mobile and needless to say the advice to text customer service didn’t help…
