How do you get picture text messages without needing to go on line with a code

@PhilPicton

You need to ensure your handset is setup for Picture Messaging / MMS

If you let us know what handset you can we can try and help

Text the word "active" to 2020, save the settings that get returned and reboot phone.

You also need to have mobile data turned on in the phone settings.

Still struggling with picture messages. Each time I text active to 2020 we get a message back saying sorry we are busy.
