Why does my cell phone send/recieve text messages late?

Question

When I text, it like switches.

It says my message has been sent, but sometimes the person I am texting does not recieve it until about 2 hours later. Other times, it is reversed, and I don't recieve their message 1-2 hours later.

Other times, it works fine. I don't understand what the h**l is wrong

Answer 1

It's probably not your phone but your service provider (or the recipient's provider). My guess would be that their servers have a low capacity and your message is put in a queue.

Answer 2

I had a very similar problem. Except my receiving texts from only one person sometimes didn't go through. Get the Customer Service number from your provider, ask to speak with tech support, and explain to them exactly what you stated in your question. For me, they asked me to turn off my phone, take out the battery, then put the battery back in and restart the phone once all network updates were transferred and completed. Process took me about 15 - 20 minutes.

Answer 3

some phone bring setting for message it ask what time deliver the message 1 hour 2 1day and like that so look for message settings ok
