Hi, not able to receive SMS till the swap to 5g SIM card. Tried everything, network reset, phone reset called operator at o2, swapped the SIM into other phones with same issue. At present is still verifying my number in the chat feature, tried also disabling the chat.... Nothing...

I am waiting a call back from the technical team but could take up to 5 days...already 3 days with no access to banking due to OTP verification issue... If not fixed I may to change operator?
Any idea how to fix this bug?

If you turn of Google Chat does it send plain SMS? If so the O2 side of things is working.

I've found with Chat turning it of for a while and then entering the number with the leading 0 (even though it shows a +44) works

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

So is this RCS in an Android Phone.. 

 

Go into the Phone Settings and turn it off, as you don't need it on to receive SMS, and your only options when it gets stuck is to try a full factory reset, once you have backed up the phone. 

 

Have a look at the link below, to disable RCS / Chat on Android

If those tips dont work, then a factory reset or contact Google

It does send but do not receive them, all OTP of the app are not received. It seems that is a porting issue but I will try your suggestion

Try a different messaging app too.

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.
