Subject says it all.

If I send an MMS (a text message with a photo or similar attached) on my iPhone4, it gets 'sent' but it never arrives at the recipients iPhone.


Is this a known issue or is there anything I can check from here?  I have 1000 MMS a month but can't use them (though it still seems the number available goes down...)

Can you send a PXT (MMS) to your own mobile number?

Click on my user name and send me your mobile and I can do some checks.

Also the title of thread needs to be changed as you can send MMS as the handset advises ' message sent '

Thanks John.. PM sent.

Sent an MMS to my own number, didn't arrive either.

Sent to a work colleague with a Nokia E71 on TCL's network, the photo sent arrived.

Yeah true.. but when you only have 300 sms and have 1000 MMS, it pays to use the MMS when you can (even if you attach a small graphic or something) to use 'em up..

Odd when you can't find a MSISDN in your own MMSC

And you have an iphone... the plot thickens...

The MMS I sent to my own mobile never arrived.  If you send one to yourself does it arrive?

Are my MMS' getting lost on VF's network?

Problem turns out that my wife had never sent an mms before so her phone wasn't being sent them. She got one message from pxt world. Sent one mms from her phone and now working correctly.

Thanks for help with the troubleshooting John.
