Why can't I send or receive texts?

Newbie

to the more everything plan, with unlimited talk/texting.

But its not letting me send or receive text messages.

Tried taking the SIM out for 5 minutes and putting it back in and still no luck. Also tried clearing cache/data in the messaging application.

Is there something else im supposed to do to be able to send./receive texts.

My signal strength is 1 bar 4G I can also connect to wifi if that helps. The only message I get is "message did not send" would you like to try again.

You might contact Customer Service (*611 from a cell phone or 800-922-0204) and have them check the text provisioning for that line.
