Hi,

I upgraded to a Samsung A20e yesterday on a new tarriff. I did sim swap via text message yesterday morning as i am keeping my number. Unfortunately i cannot recieve incoming texts. Please can you advise if the sim swap has been completed and if there is a wider issue. 

Many Thanks

Hi @Laura16 

The text issue is known to O2. They are working on it.

I upgraded from an iPhone 6S to a Huawei P30 Lite yesterday. I also swapped the sim using text service but have not been able to receive any SMS messages. I have been able to send them and both send and recieve phone calls. 

 

I thought there may have been an issue with the number being associated with Apple iMessage but I have turned it off on all devices. Of course the Apple way of checking if you have de-registered the number is to send you an SMS code (*facepalm*). 

 

If this is a larger problem with the network I guess we will see if it gets resolved.
