Hi,

Slightly strange issue i've got, I can't receive any SMS over 5G. They don't come through to the phone until i drop my network settings down to 4G. Has anyone else ever experienced this issue / know how to get this resolved. This is also happening in multiple locations.

It's unusual!

A few things I'd be looking to test, before reporting to CS...

Can you sent SMS when on 5G? If so, text NUMBER to 150 and see if you get a response? Send a text to yourself, does it send? And do you receive it?

Are you using 5G in SA or NSA mode?

It appears to be only 5G SA. Texting 150 works fine both sending and receiving but SMS sending and receiving another phone or Verification codes dont work, so very strange.

How about sending text to yourself?

Are you Android?,  and are you using Google Messaging as your SMS Gateway?
