Why are texts not going through to one of my contacts?
Not applicable

Today, around Noon, ALL texts to a specific contact are not going through. I am able to receive texts from that contact, and they can send and receive from other people on varying providers networks.

Is this happening to others? What excuses are you getting from Verizon?

No excuses here! We're here to help get to the bottom of this!

This issue may be device related. What model phone do you have? If you or the other user have an iPhone, this may be related to the iMessaging feature. Powering off this feature will allow the device to use the standard SMS text messaging feature on both devices and should function with no problem.
