New LG G3 - Texts going to old iPhone

Anonymous — Wed, 04 Feb 2015 10:25:32 GMT

Hello again,

Vaguely confused brand new LG G3 user again (thank you again for getting my 3G signal set up yesterday!!).

I am still using my old 'not in service' iPhone just to check work emails (outlook) which I haven't yet been able to set up on my new phone.

When I text my 15 year old daughter (she has an iPhone 5c which is almost fused to her hand) from my new LG G3 phone and she replies, the replies go to my old iPhone.

I've turned off the imessaging on my old iPhone and am now not receiving her replies at all (although she has texted in response?).

Any ideas?

Many thanks,

No you're trying to confuse us with your spoilers
You need to deregister your number from the iPhone so that texts will come through to the LG.

Why did all those spoilers come through - what happened then

Sorry for being thick (I am of a 'certain age', without googling, how do I deregister my number, do I need to contact Apple?

Good news and yes the spoilers were the first post I read this morning. Thought I had woken up in a parallel universe

The OP post was like a teaser advertising campaign, revealing little by little the problem...
