Not receiving texts from Tesco mobile numbers

I am receiving texts just fine from all contacts apart from the 2 I know who are in tesco mobile. Naturally tesco are blaming my network, saying they can see the text has been sent* successfully through their systems. 

I have ensured neither number is blocked, as well as trying a different handset. Tesco even sent out a new sim to her which hasn't done anything.

Both devices have been power cycled and network settings reset, to no avail  

 

Anyone else experienced this? Its just those 2 contacts, no one else....

 

*its my mothers number that's not coming through, and I've spoken to tesco on her behalf

Hello @Ruzhyo Phoenix,

That’s very odd indeed.

 

We’ll see if we can speak to our TechTeam with this one as we’re not sure why this is happening to 2 numbers specifically.

 

I’ve sent you a PM so we can look into this further.

You are able to send message to them. Try to change default message app and send message from Tesco.

I can send messages to them with no problem. I've tried the following measures 

 

Downloaded a different message ap, and send a text from tesco to me

Power cycle the phone.

Power cycle MY phone. 

Reset network settings on both devices. 

Tried their sim card in a different phone

Got a replacement sim card (for them)

Tried texting to and from different locations

Booted phone in safe mode and tried sending a text

 

None of it does anything. I'm convinced its an issue between our 2 networks. But I have no idea

Definitely appears to be a problem with tesco mobile and ID, a 3rd number tried texting me today from tesco and nothing came through.
