Unfortunately calling tech support is the only option because:
1. its sounds like something is wrong in the system with your text/mulitmedia messaging and a tech support rep needs to verify that you have the correct feature on your account. Also they have the ability to refresh the feature which may resolve your problem
2. A store rep may not have access to the tool that is used to refresh the feature.
I've seen this problem happen before and it usually takes about 4 - 6 minutes to resolve it!!!!!!

Contact Tech Support because there may be something in the VZW system that needs to be corrected!

Log into My Verizon and see if you have picture messaging blocked. If it isn't then call tech support. Exactly how long since you have ported your number? Sometimes it takes up to 1 week for text and such to be completed, but usually no more than 1-2 days(This goes for ALL carriers).

Problem solved. Thanks all for your help!
Resolution: My company had blocked MMS from all iPhones, but I can't see this info on my VZ profile. Called VZ business tech support & they knew what was going on. Had to complain & whine to my company about this & they finally authorized unblocking.
