I've just upgraded to the s21 5g. Love the phone. How ever I can't recive texts, i can send but not receive. Who ever sends to me they seem to just say failed there end. If I restart my phone it works. Buy after a few hours or the next morning, its as it was cant recive.

Hi @connornathan79

 

Thanks for coming to the community. 

 

Can you receive calls? 

 

When this happens, could you try texting BALANCE to 150 to see if you get a reply? 

 

Thanks 🙂

 

Leanne.

Yes, everything else works fine.

Did you port your number over from another carrier to EE or did you upgrade?

Hi @connornathan79 

 

Which messaging app are you using? There are two

The one with the three dots is the traditional text messaging app, the other is the enhanced one. Can you check the one with the three dots. 

 

Thanks

Thanks @connornathan79

 

Does this happen with more than one person when they text you? 

 

Are you using the old SIM card or did you get a new one? 

 

Speak soon 🙂
