Hi all,

I've tried calling O2 but their phones are non stop busy... I've also tried the live chat but I'm basically banging my head against a wall.

I can send texts when WiFi and 4G calling are disabled but when they are enabled I can't send any texts at all 😕

Very frustrating and been ongoing for 4 weeks now and I've tried factory reset, been sent a new SIM the lot.

Anyone have any similar issues?

Thanks in advance

Texts over wifi are not currently supported by O2 so no one can send them over wifi unfortunately.

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.

You shouldn't have to as long as you have a mobile signal.

Have you got priority set to wifi calling or mobile?
