I tried in August and again today.
It just keeps saying text could not be sent.
My text messaging works as normal for literally every other phone number. Its as if they've blocked me.
Not helpful in the slightest

If it says it 'could not be sent' that implies a problem with your phone, otherwise it would be sent.
What are you trying to resolve?

! Not sent. Check options.
The options are resend or delete.
The number I am texting help to is 07800 008121
Tried deleting it as a contact and adding again.
Made sure my mobile number is linked to my account. Tried using mobile network to text instead of WiFi.
I have successfully used this service abkut 18 months ago from the same mobile number. Its as if I'm blacklisted.
As I said, texts to and from everyone else are working as usual.

Extremely strange - I think I may have seen this error a couple of times in the dim and distant past, but can't recall a resolution - if there was one.
So, what is your problem, for which you have tried to use the bot?

attempting to send as SMS? Try turning on mobile data and sending as MMS.
Recently with Vodafone I've had to turn on mobile data and send as MMS. I think something changed with vodafone.

OK. If you can't get the text bot to work, can you give us some more information, and maybe we can help on here. Are you on ADSL/FTTC or FTTP?
What is your normal speed/what are you seeing now?

Knowing who is the mobile provider is probably key to finding the root cause. With some providers, some mobile numbers are not treated as mobile numbers. I recall this issue years ago for Sky mobile users.
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

I phoned the 0330 number and selected option 1 for a fault. The automated service then sent me a text. This arrived in the same conversation as the 40 or so failed texts. Texts are now flowing properly between me ans plusnet.
Absolutely bizarre.
