Re: Sending texts don't arrive?
Has she asked VM to check her account settings etc or maybe check that the sim is working correctly? Seems strange that only your texts don't arrive or has anyone else mentioned it to her...... maybe she is trying to ignore you lol

Re: Sending texts don't arrive?
You could try turning on "Delivery reports" if your phone has that function. It lets you know when the message you sent has been received.

Re: Sending texts don't arrive?
It's probably not related, but I am on T mobile (VM use the T Mobile network), and I find that texts to/from my phone can take up to three hours to arrive.

Re: Sending texts don't arrive?
You're not sending fancy texts, are you? My mum sent me a text with pictures in it - my phone just does text. Nothing more. So I never got it. She's got a new phone - had to go over and show her the space button. Was sendingteXTSwithnoSPACESwhichmadeMEthinkshewasatth ewhiskeyagain
Oh and networks will drop texts to maintain service availability at peak times.

Do the texts show up on your bill?
