Its happening to me too on all SMS.

i have tried:

airplane mode

phone restart

re-install network profile

Factory reset network settings

Weirdly I can receive sms and make phone calls with network disabled (to avoid phone using WiFi call for test purposes).

coverage checker seems to think everything is fine

Yeah same here, I've tried resetting network settings, toggling aeroplane mode and sms messages and iMessages, restarted and updated phone, nothings working, seems to be system wide

Same up in Newcastle error of 'message failed to send' for any sms texts. Working fine a few hours ago. Receiving texts OK but can't reply - showing as 'not delivered' when replying.

Yes, me, my daughter and my partner are all with sky mobile. We can't send messages either, saying undelivered. Turned off and on and still having an issue.

JulesWat — Mon, 31 Aug 2026 19:15:03 GMT

Yes I have the same problem. I'd been with vodaphone for 20 year and never had a problem. I've been with sky now for 2 months and I've had more issues in this short period of time than I ever had with Vodafone. I'm wishing I'd never changed.!!

Rivelo — Mon, 31 Aug 2026 19:16:40 GMT

I just switched from Vodafone too. The prices are better but so far, the service is not impressive...
