Pictures SMS not downloading

Recently changed from Telus to Public Mobile (Telus) and now when I receive a SMS with a picture it just spins and eventually times out saying "not available". Although I received a few others that will download but most fail. I am using Google messages as my default messaging app but have tried the stock app and Textra etc. with the same results.
