I can receive text messages but can not send

@Pierreroy1944   Turn airplane mode on. Wait 5 min. Turn airplane mode off. Try sending/receiving text messages.

@Pierreroy1944 how long ago did you port your number? A cell number can take up to 3 hours and a landline 2.5 days to complete.

Porting has no no relation to the inability to send outgoing text messages. Even if a port has failed, outgoing text messaging would still work.

@Pierreroy1944  If you have an iPhone make sure SMS and MMS are turned on.

Hi @Pierreroy1944 

What happen when you try?

Which app are you using and on which phone?

Thanks

@Pierreroy1944 how long ago did you port your number? A cell number can take up to 3 hours and a landline 2.5 days to complete. If Its been longer than that, your port may be stuck.

More details please.

What kind of phone do you have?

Did you just port your number from another provider?

If yes, how long ago?

What works and what does not?

Calls in out?

Text in and out?

Data?

What plan are you on?

When you say you can't send a text..are you talking about a normal sms or are you by chance talking about a MMS picture text?
