Delivery Reports

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have just come from EE where I was getting delivery reports with no problems. I never knew 02 never have done delivery reports unless you add a code at start of message until recently after being with them. Is there a reason to this and are they ever going to allow this standard function? And what is the code?

*0# and there's no chance of any change from O2.
It's always been this way even before O2 was O2.

Hello @Anonymous, welcome to the O2 community!

As @MI5 said, the ‘delivery report’ function is not supported on the O2 network. If you’d like to receive delivery reports, you can enter *0# followed by your text message and then send the message as you usually would.

Please let us know how it goes Wave

The advice I got (add *0#) worked perfectly. Thank you.
