Cant send/receive mms messages or send in group chats

Started this morning. Cant send messages to an established group text. Cant send/receive picture texts.  It is not just me, but at least 5 others that I am aware. 

 

Resetting the phones did not help either.

If you're using Verizon Messages+ for your texting app, that's being shut down (it was supposed to sunset earlier this month but I heard it's now been moved to December).

Appreciate the thought, but we arent using Messages +, so thats not the issue.

There have been a few threads cropping up recently about people not being able to text customers using a certain competitor's service.  It may be a network issue where Verizon's SMSC isn't communicating with the other guy's SMSC.  Have you looked on the Check Network Status link in the "Get help from Verizon" box to the right to see if anything comes up about the towers in your area?

Everyone is on Verizon. When I check the service area, it says impacts from Hurricane Milton, but that was 3 weeks ago and our issue started today. We are in Florida.

LittleLion2, sorry that those group messages and media ones are having trouble. I'm going to send you a Private Message, so I can go over a few details.
