It seems my msg facilities has been taken over by Google, and now I don't get any? There is a just a Google screen?

Hi @NorthTower
Thanks for coming back to the community.
Is this when you go into your text message app?
What device are you using?

You may have "RCS Chat" enabled - the option to disable should be under Messages > Settings > Chat settings.
Exact location may vary between Android versions.

No, it is not enabled.

My phone is 5033_EX Android 8.1
Yes. When I click on msgs, there are no incoming msgs, that I know have been sent.
I tried ringing my mobile from my landline and I just get a msg saying 'calls are not being connected to this number' so does that include txt msgs as well?

Hi @NorthTower,
Are you using a pay as you go or pay monthly plan?
Has it been out of use for an extended period?
Are you in the UK or roaming?
Can you make outbound calls?

I am in the UK, using PAYG £6.50 credit, and I can't make outgoing calls.

Does your phone show 'EE' next to signal bars, @NorthTower. Do you hear a message when you try to make a call? What does it say?

What are signal bars ? Presumably something that should be in the symbols across the top of the screen?
I also note it no longer charges fully - could it just be a worn out battery?

There is only a flashing downward pointing triange next to the signal bars - which are quite low - and there is no EE showing
