HI @Crapshoot  did you turn on send as Text on your iPhone?

and make sure you are not sending MMS.  You can send MMS, but you need to turn on mobile data

I turned off iMessage but by doing so I am now not RECEIVING messages?

I am still looking for solutions 

thx

Thanks.. I thought it would automatically convert to a text when I wasn’t on wifi?

@Crapshoot as mentioned by @Handy1 ...imessage needs data.  Texting does not.

@Crapshoot  Turn iMessage off and send text sms instead
