Possible problems with text messaging

Text messages cannot be sent and screen displays Message not sent

The base station power supply or telephone line cord might not be properly connected.

Check that the base station power supply is plugged into the mains socket and switched on and that the telephone is plugged into the telephone wall socket.

There might be a fault on the line. Check your telephone line is working properly.

You might have deleted the server number in error. See page 45 for instructions on how to enter the number.

Cannot send text

Check service centre number is correct including 1470P prefix (this is for BT lines. If you have another network provider please check the prefix number with them). In order to send and receive text messages you must not withhold your number. If you normally withhold your number the 1470 prefix presents your number for you.

Cannot receive text

You will not be able to receive text messages until you have first sent a message. The first message sent registers you with the text service.

More than one text messaging product is plugged into the line. Either remove the other text (SMS) enabled products or see below "I want to use more than one text (SMS) enabled product on my telephone line" for alternative instructions.

Check service centre number is correct.

Ensure you have subscribed to a Caller Display service and that it is active. You can check this by noting if your phone displays your caller’s number when you receive an incoming call.

If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on Freephone 0800 218 2182* or email bt.helpdesk@vtecheurope.com
