@DbS1 Have you recently moved to Sky or if you are a current customer when did your line last work? Have you made and package changes to your broadband service.

If you recently joined Sky did you request the text sending feature from Sky which is a chargeable service.

@DbS1

Based on a couple of things you've mentioned in your post, if you have health issues that affect your ability to communicate it may be worth registering with the Sky Accessibility Team who may be able to help now or in the future. Once registered there are also different methods of communication with this team other than phoning so have a look here… ~
