Not receiving MMS from Bell Subscriber

Hi,

I seem unable to receive MMS messages from Bell subscribers.  I receive MMS from PM subscribers and even from VoiP subscribers (Text Now supports MMS) with no issues.

 

Has anyone else experienced this?

 

Thanks,

Neil

Hi,

A SIM reset fixed the problem.

 

Thanks for your suggestions!

 

Cheers,

Neil

 

Couple more ideas:

a) have a Bell subscriber send you a regular SMS, reply, and have them reply to you with picture msg,

b) ask your Bell subscriber to reduce the size of their attachment.

 

Definitely odd behaviour but since it you say it's one Bell subscriber perhaps their phone settings are off.

Weird, I can send and receive MMS from Bell subscribers no problem.

I ported in a number from Wind Mobile whenI joined Public Mobile back in October 2016.  I just recently realized I could not receive MMS from a Bell subscriber.

 

However, as recently as feb 15th 2017, i was able to receive MMS from the same Bell subscriber!

 

I'll do a SIM removal/re-insert and see if that helps.  If not, I'll get in touch with a mod.

 

Thanks,

Neil

You will probably need help ffom a mod, but they will likley ask the same troublesoting questions.

Hi,

Nope - I have not contacted the moderators yet. I want to be sure I'm experiencing a real problem (i.e., as opposed to an issue we all are facing with Bell MMS), before reaching out to the mods.

 

Cheers,

Neil
