Aliciadelao, I use group text quite often throughout the day. Let’s get your working again. Group messaging is sent as a Multimedia Message, or MMS. This is a feature that is run through our network. You must have your cellular data enabled in order for these types of messages to go through.


As far as your 6S, with a new phone, we can’t have you having problems with that already. Where are you when you say your cellular data goes in and out? What does your phone do? Does it go from LTE to 3G or to 1X? Please describe.

Making sure your group text is working is very important Aliciadelao. Are you using any 3rd party text application you downloaded? Which Iphone do you have and is the software updated?

Aliciadelao-

We want your signal to work flawlessly at all times. I depend on my data most of the day so I would expect this to be working when I most need it. I want the same outcome for you. What zip code are you in when this happens? By chance, are other people been affected as well? Are you seeing an error message when using your internet when WIFI is not available. Please share those details for us to help you find a solution.
