@SusanRose That sounds very strange. Are you receiving the texts as well?

Tell her to check in Settings >Phone >My Number, and that her correct number is showing in there. If it isn't, she can change it to her current number.

@SusanRose 

Your Apple ID is still logged in on your old phone. 

You need to sign out and remove it.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
