Problem with reception of text is

[Fat]

Hello. I have an issue with the reception of text messages. I can use my phone as usual (calls, Internet and send text messages). I can received text messages,  I don't understand why??? I called O2 and they sent me a new sim card and still the same. I've tried other phone and still the same. I have a Samsung A52. If someone can help me please.  Thanks

It will be in pennies, as I would imagine its a line in a SQL Database (other DB's are available)...

I wasn't really thinking about the internal costs of maintaining a database etc.

I more had in mind any quantifiable external costs such as an annual licensing fee or royalty - something that might make Three think "ooh there's a saving to be had here" !

There are none @Oxonian 

Three legally own the numbers in the National Dialling plan as assigned by OFCOM, so there is nothing for them to pay to anyone...
