It appeared that disabling Family Base for a period of time (less than 24 hours)....for me that meant actually removing it from my plan, then re-adding at a later time, solved this problem.

I have since re-enabled and re-configured Family Base, and I am using the desktop messaging now with no issues.

Thank you to my Verizon Tech, Carla, for working this to completion.

Well - I removed my Family Base feature from my plan as suggested.  I guess I'll save $4.99 / month now.

My family base has been disabled for over 36 hours and I am still receiving the message.  That did not resolve my problem.  Thank you.

I have had family base disabled for over a week, and I am still experiencing this problem.  Is there any update on a solution?

Does turning the device off, removing the SIM card and then powering it back up and reinserting the SIM card help at all?

I am having the same issue as the original post.  I am using online browser based messaging.

"https://web.vma.vzw.com/vma/web2/Message.do  (double quote added so you can view the URL)

Frequently, when trying to send a message, I receive the following pop up error: Your message was not
sent due to usage control restrictions. Contact your account owner to change
your permissions.

The error occurs in both Internet Explorer and in Chrome.  I have closed the browser windows, signed out, signed back in again, and the errors frequently occur.

As suggested in this thread, I have disabled family base on my plan - it is still disabled - and the issue has continued to occur.

Thank you.

I'm sorry to hear you're still having the same issues with your text messaging jmancuso . Are you having the issues with a specific number that you send messages to? Do you have your messages synced with any other devices?
