Hi @Anonymous Does the message ever show in your sent box? I would reboot the phone (turn off and back on) and see if that helps

Also check in settings that you have the right message centre number

Open messages, settings and type in the message centre number :
Pay Monthly +447802000332
Pay & Go +447802092035

You don't get delivery reports on o2 unless you start your message with *0#

Maybe a new SIM card will help?

The way this has been solved before by trying a new sim in the phone. If you take the phone instore they will swap it over for you.

Have a look at this thread. The problem was sorted following the advice given by @MI5

Just start your text message with *0# and you will get notification of delivery to the recipients phone.
No way to confirm if it has been read though.

@Martin-O2 o2 do not support native delivery notifications (never have) only using the work around do you get any

http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Apple-iOS-Devices-iPhone-iPad/SMS-Delivery-reports/m-p/352/highlight/true#M167 an old post confirming o2 are the only network back then that did not support the feature

@adamtemp64 Thanks for the heads up! I was not aware they were not supported.
