Keep rebooting your phone. Text messages are usually the last to port across.

Settings >Phone >My Number.

Edit to correct number, save and reboot phone.

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.

Hi @Vikki4 how are you doing today? It would be great to hear back from you to see if you got your text messages sorted with your new number after you last posted? slight_smile
