Email to SMS service not working?

[dougwzz98]

Is anyone else experiencing a problem with email to SMS notifications not being received? I use this service quite a bit, and have noticed starting today that although the emails are arriving OK I'm not getting the corresponding SMS message. 

TIA.

Thanks - I have tried sending the "status" text to 30102 and it just will not go.  Have reset the settings by sending ACTIVE to 2020 so the APN is correct but still msg will not go, is O2's MMS server down?

If you have never used MMS before you might need to get it enabled on your account. You also need mobile data turned on and if you are PAYG you need credit as each MMS cost 25p.

Strange - I have used MMS many times before without problem

Actually, thinking about it, browni had a problem trying to get a response from that shortcode. I think he mentioned it on the other thread.....

Not necessarily so as I have been asking O2 on Twitter (@ladams888) and, after a week, still cannot get a definitive answer to (a) is the serviuce simply "down" or (b) has the service been discontinued.  Until I get a definitive answer, I will still hold out hope that it might return.
