Try increasing the bill cap for your iD account @SJL

I think it costs more than the standard message rate to send to the short-code 82322 - Heart Radio should have the cost for entering the competition by text, somewhere online or during the ad.  

Hi thanks there doesn’t appear to be any bill cap

Okay @SJL, do you manage your iD account online, or by calling 7777?

If you manage your iD account online or by using the iD app, the following forum article might help.

 

Hi this isn’t the issue as bill cap was set at £5

Okay @SJL, short-code numbers are managed by EE, O2, Three and Vodafone, and regulated by OFCOM. 

Short-codes might not work on with all MVNO companies. Their website https://www.short-codes.com has more information. 

Hopefully iD can understand and fix the issue. Meanwhile, can you enter the competition online?

It is now too late ! Irhough idmobile used 3 network?

Hey @SJL,

iD does use Three UK’s network for coverage.

This isn’t what @andewhite  was advising.

Have you also got Premium SMS enabled in the app?

Hey @SJL,

Can you check and verify? As this makes a different and could be why the texts are not sending.
