If someone’s phone is turned off for a few months will they get my messages I sent when they finally turn it back on?

Just guessing but most likely not and you’ll have to resend it. 👍

If the number is still a valid in-service line on the account, I would think the Message+ server would store the messages and forward them to the phone when online.

18Mimi, this is a great question. Depending on the amount of time that has elapsed, the messages might be delivered, however, they will most likely need to be re-sent. There isn't a specific amount of time texts are saved before being deleted.
