Duplicate text messages and calling issues

Over the last few weeks I have been experiencing 2 problems.

When sending texts the recipient will receive the same message multiple times.

Also when making a call nothing happens from my end but the recipient of the call says it rings but then they can't hear anything. I have to redial, sometimes multiple times before I get a connection. Any suggestions please on how to resolve this?

Hi Everyone

 

Can I firstly apologise sincerely for the length of time it has taken for us to be able to resolve this problem.  Our support teams have advised that they believe this issue was resolved earlier today.

 

Can I ask if this is the case for everyone, please?

Thanks

Re: Duplicate text messages and calling issues

I have a sky mobile and when sending text messages it is stating trouble sending, but the person I am sending the messages to is receiving them multiple times even though my phone is saying not sent.  when checking service area on Sky it is saying all is ok.  I have turned my phone of several times and taken out the sim card and put it back in.  Why is it doing this?

Re: Duplicate text messages and calling issues

Happening to me too. Been happening since roughly 20th March! Just replied on another one who is having the same issues. Only found out today when. Someone asked me why I keep sending things twice. I know some of the messages were from clicking resend after saying unable to send but not all of them! Always seems to be issues with Sky over the last year.

Since Monday my phone keeps sending duplicate text messages

  • On Monday my phone started sending duplicate text messages. Also Monday another sky mobile phone in the house couldn't ring or receive calls but we sorted this by restarting it. Can't seem to sort the other sending duplicate text messages. Tried restarting, clearing storage, deleting text messages, checking phone signal, running virus scans.

Re: Since Monday my phone keeps sending duplicate text messages

Yes, I've another sky mobile which is randomly ending calls before answering and losing network connections. Fixed by switching on and off etc but multiple texts issue remains.

Hi, mine was rectified (must have been a sky fix) but it's started again!. I've given up 😳

Duplicate text messages

Text messages are sending 3+ times. Have cleared the cache, restarted phone etc. This has been going on for months. Just did a text to my husband and it sent 5 times! Seems to get stuck for a while sending before says sent, no matter where I am. All my families phones sending ones back to me don't do it though, just mine?!
