I can't send texts from the US even after adding funds to my wallet to pay as I go

Posts: 1 ✭✭

As per title. Outside of the coverage area (Quebec), I have the option to either buy an add-on, or pay-as-I-go from the balance in my wallet. I've transferred funds to my wallet, but it still won't send texts.

Roaming is on, airplane mode is off, and I can't find anything in my iphone 7 settings that would prevent texts from sending out. It must be a coverage issue, but I have the funds there. What gives?

    @xarx I believe that your iMessage is set to use the data to send the SMS

    you need to activate the option to use the provider instead the data

    It should be something like this on the setting

    settings>messages turn on send as SMS

    Right answer. Enable "send as sms"
