Unless my Samsung Galaxy Ace is connected to WiFi, SMS messages just will not send.

I've had this problem since I got the phone before I started installing apps and widgets. Because I had SMS working via WiFi I assumed the issue had gone but that is not the case.

Even with a strong signal on 3G, nothing will send. Instant failure with "Message not sent" notification. Cleared cache settings, checked message centre number, even tried installing Handcent. No joy.

After a little time spent researching the problem some have said it's a SIM issue. I have no idea and to be honest unlike with PCs I don't want to spend hours messing around with things, so if anyone has ideas on the matter that'd be great.
