Group message not going through as sms

[Jules22]

• I have a problem. Noticed one group message, messages sent by sms and not going through. However the other group message goes through as iMessage and goes through. How can I get my message go through sms. I did not create these groups.

ask PM to check or refresh you account for you

Simply open ticket with PM using the Orange Chatbot icon on the lower right. (For 2FA  code when login, use email to receive code instead of SMS if you cannot receive the text on the phone.)    When open Chatbot ticket, Type the question Submit ticket and select Contact Us to get to ticket open screen

Still not resolved. Tried everything tha is mentioned. I need to speak to an agent and it doesn’t seem possible. So frustrating

@Jules22   You've marked the problem as solved, is it working now?  If not, you need to have cellular data turned on for MMS to work whereas iMessage can use both data and wifi.  Also check in Settings - Messages - Send & Receive and make sure your phone number is checked.

MMS is turned on

@Jules22 

If a group messaging involves both android and iPhones, from my personal experience, I found some technical difficulties between the two different types of phones.  We used WhatsApp instead.  

Is your MMS Messaging turn on?  From my understanding, group texts are usually send via MMS text (instead of  SMS text).

i would toggle off "Send as Text Message" and reboot and turn it back on and try 

also, do you have RCS setup on your iPhone? that could be a problem if the group was using RCS and you don't have it properly setup 

[Jules22]

Most probably android and iPhone

can you confirm if some people in the group are using Android?
