Hi ​@Gerry1967 

 

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re experiencing this issue. Please be aware that sending short code texts is classed as an out-of-plan service, so you’ll need to increase your bill cap in order to use this feature.

 

You can find more information about out-of-plan charges here: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/call-charges

Hi ​@Gemma M bill cap is good and also toggle has been set to allow, still not working although it worked with a different shot code ok, so maybe just an issue with this one??
