Can't receive text messages on Galaxy S20

Getting very frustrated now with my new Galaxy S20 5G. I am able to make and receive phone calls and send texts but I'm not receiving any texts... Which means I can't finish setting up my apps as a lot of them want to text me codes. I've googled for hours and tried everything I can find with no success. I tried phoning O2 but I can't get talking to anyone because it wasn't deemed urgent enough.

 

So far I have:

Restarted the phone (several times)

Updated the software

Removed the sim

Cleared the message cache

Triple checked the message centre number

 

Anybody any suggestions as to where I go from here? Any help much appreciated

 

Regards

Pete

@ScottyDawg 

I expect people in different areas will be getting their system up and running at different times today.

Be patient. Obviously a fix is on it's way.

@Chris_K  can you confirm if this text issue is fixed properly? Is it area dependent as some are getting texts this morning and others not?

I received notification in the early hours of this morning that this issue has now been resolved. If you restart your phones, texts should work as normal.
