This this one right now. Seems like the only thing I have not tried.

Also, just received a call from Android. 

@Andriko_2   This may not be the problem since it happened with your sim in another phone too, but have you checked Settings -> Messages -> Send and Receive to make sure you are sending and receiving at your phone number rather than email?  A recent ios update seemed to have changed my preferences there and it messed up texting until I figured it out.

Unless i missed it @Andriko_2 how about your other services such as calling both in and out and mobile data?

Do those fully work?

Thank you. Yes, it seems that I have tried all of the available options, and Apple thread suggestions. I will message the CSA - thanks for the link.

Since texting did not work in another phone, it may be a PM carrier issues.

Contact customer service agent:

Send a private message to CSA through the following link :

It may take a few hours for CSA to respond.

Check on the phone to see if Settings/Messages/Send as SMS is turned on.

@Andriko_2  Can you try the sim card in another phone to test .? If not maybe try resetting network settings and ensure you have sms enabled and not just IMessage in the iPhone settings
