During a power outage in south Ottawa on April 28, I was using my LTE data and hit the 100% cap. I didn't bother purchasing more because I get the new cycle in a few days.
Since then, however, text messages are not being sent or received when they're delivered. The majority of texts have not been sent or received, while a handful have come through hours later. This includes 2FA authentification for some services that don't have an email or app backup. It may be a coincidental timing with my data usage, but I'm baffled.
My account is in good standing—autopay and on a credit card. I have been with Public Mobile for many years now and have had this number for over a decade. I've restarted my phone twice and tried changing the messaging app defaults (third party and the Android one). Device is motorola one vision, and while it's old (2020), I'm not having any other issues with the phone, just with Public Mobile's messaging. Phone calls are working fine. Because I'm at 100% data usage and don't want to buy more, I can't test that, but it shouldn't impact my ability to send and receive SMS.
Telus outage map is showing no current outages.
What should I try next? Should I just wait it out to see if it resolves itself?
