SMS Delivery Receipts on Iphone

Hi i'm looking to receive delivery receipts for my SMS texts on iphone.

Iphone doesn't have any options to turn on receipts for SMS but I have seen other phone networks allowing you to prefix your text message with a code to receive the receipt.

For example prefix a text message from o2 with *0# and you'll get sent a delivery receipt.

Does id have such a code to request a receipt?

      Hi @puttycat1

      Unfortunately it would seem that iD Mobile don't support this feature yet :(

      iPhones also unfortunately don't support the feature to toggle on "Get SMS Reports" or "Request Delivery Report" either. They kinda scrapped this after iMessage became a thing which is weird how they give the option of delivery/read receipts to iMessage but not SMS messages.

      Regards
