Hey ya'll so i was one of the ones that switched over to att from verizon. I got the 32 gig iphone . My question is, has anyone had problems with people getting your text messages? I've had that from a couple people. I dont know if its got something to do with the porting, but its kinda bugging me . Any thoughts?
 
Anybody else? Does it get better?

Did to me. I'm now getting all my messages although some are delayed 2-5 minutes, but mainly from people with Verizon if i'm not in an active conversation. Meaning, if they just sent me a message out of the blue, it would take a while for me to get it. After i reply, i get their messages almost instantaneously as long as they reply quickly
 
Who are you not receiving them from? I ported over from Alltel and wasn't getting any from Alltel/Verizon customers, they said at the ATT store that someone came in right before me and had the same problem. They gave me a new SIM card and its worked since then.

i wasn't recieving from verizon customers. i ported from verizon and only about a day and a half after the port was i not recieving them. i recieved text messages instantly from other att customers except for a picture message that took a whole day to be delivered but i heard that was normal

I was getting them from ATT too, not Verizon/Alltel. I'd go to an ATT store and see if they'll give you a new SIM card.

i never went to att or got a new sim card.....i just waited it out and it started working fine eventually. if you still get the same problem after a couple days, then ya try to get one
