New SIM text problem

Anonymous
Not applicable

 Recently got a new SIM loaded wife's number into phone and now whenever the phone is switched back on it sends her 5 blank texts. Drives her a bit more mad every time, at least she appreciates how often the battery runs out. Any ideas?

Hi @Anonymous I know you say you have a new sim.... I might be inclined to try another new sim....

Just pop into an O2 shop and get it exchanged...

This is my first thought ...I expect someone else could offer further advice:smileywink:

Edited to add...maybe remove the sim...give it a clean and reinsert to see if this clears up the problem...
