What does roaming have to do with receiving SMS messages? I am in the same boat, I need to receive an SMS from Paypal but my phone suddenty stopped  receiving messages and calls

Thanks @stevej200 

I would suggest getting in touch with our mobile care team and they will get this looked into in more detail for you.
