Morning @MM138
If you could add credit and try sending the message us again that would be great,.
Let us know if this works for you.

Hi there @Laurence69
Thanks for coming to the community 🙂
Do you have a pay as you go or pay monthly account?
What device are you using?
Speak soon.

Hi @MM138
Thanks for coming to the community.
What is happening when you try to send a text? Do you see any kind of error message or symbol?
Is it impacting all messages you try to send?
Are you trying to send texts to other UK mobiles or an international number?

Thanks @MM138
Do you have a credit balance on the SIM? If it is trying to send a MMS, it would charge cost 40p per message.

It worked when I added credit to my phone, over and above my usual package payment. Thank you, Margaret
