Not receiving text messages

Hi there,

 

I currently have an iPhone 6s. I am receiving iMessages from all contacts who have an iPhone but no text messages. I've restarted several times but the problem still persists. I purchased a US roaming plan which expires tomorrow, but I doubt this is related.

 

I should also mention that texts are coming from different carriers - rogers, Kodoo. They are receiving my texts but I am not receiving theirs.

This just happened to me. I returned from the US about 27 hours ago and didn't get any texts today, and didn't think to check the Community until now. If this is a known issue, shouldn't people be informed about it when their US roaming package is expiring?

@shawnmckenzie11 unfortunately, the moderators are off shift now.  You may want to send them a private message so that one can hopefully assist you in the morning--they start at 9AM Eastern time, but answer queries in a first-come-first-serve order.  That said, this issue self-resolved in 12-24 hours, so it may already have fixed itself by the time they are responding to you, but it's worth sending it just in case.

 

You will need to click here to send a private message to the @moderator_team for assistance. They are Public Mobile support employees who can help with your issue.

In your message please include:

  • PM account email address
  • PM phone number
  • Detailed explanation

I'm having this same problem. My 10 day US roaming package ended today, and I have not been able to recieve texts all day. 

Is there any way to get this sorted out today? It's 10pm here and was hoping to get it fixed but I have no idea how to contact a moderator at this hour.

@aernest as @ShawnC13 mentioned, this is a well-known US roaming expiry bug.  The issue will go away on it's own within 12-24 hours, but if you need it restored sooner, do as he mentioned and private message the moderator team for assistance. They can push the mobile centre number to your phone to refresh it much quicker.

@aernest, sorry to hear you are having some problems.  I also had the US addon (as with many others) and receiving texts after it didn't work.  Message a MOD as described above and they will get it all fixed up for you.

I assume you didn't just switch to PM, did you? When I first ported my number over to PM, it got stuck and I was in a similar position where text messages were not being received from most carriers (they were going to my old SIM card).
