SMS still troublesome.

[HHGTTG]

Well, 24 hours later after this debacle, SMS are still very slow to send and then indicate as failed even though I suspect they're being received.

I tried making a cal at 4.45am and it didn't work so it could take ages to work

Having same problem. Trying to get in contact with support but no response to my feedback so far. I reported this.............

Text messages I send are auto duplicating continuously until i close sms app and switch off/restart device, and fee charged / deducted from pay and go credit for each duplication. The recipient gets numerous copies but I have only one copy with error message saying "message not sent" (or words to that effect). This was all day yesterday (Thursday) and again this morning (Friday).

Can someone please advise?

Have you tried rebooting the device and/or going to airplane mode and then reconnecting to the network?
