Recently I have been experiencing a delay in receiving some messages, and some of my sent messages are not being received by the other person at all. It's usually a delay of a few hours, and it happens with multiple people. It seems to be just a few random messages that have problems, it's about 50/50 whether or not I receive the text on time. I also noticed that around the same time the problem started, (Wednesday 12/7) all my messages started being marked as "sent" instead of "delivered" on Message+. Some of these messages still get through, but there seems to be a correlation.
I have tried soft resetting and deleting all my texts, but the problem still continues. Is this a problem with my phone or with Verizon? Should I factory reset?
Thank you in advance.
