Not receiving longer SMS
Hello support,
I signed up for fizz recently, and have run into a few issues within the first month. For reference, I transfered from another carrier - same number.
At first my MMS messages were not delivering or being received - figured this was an APN issue, and even though the default settings were correct, I managed to get it solved with a manual add / reset of the APN details. I now get pictures again.
Now a bigger issue has popped up - I am not receiving larger texts. I get small ones without any issues. My texts send without problems, and APN settings are fine (I assume), as pictures still come through. Have not received a single long text since starting with fizz - by long, I would almost mean "medium", as they are less than a paragraph.
Any solutions? Close to switching from fizz but would prefer to stick around. APN settings can be a pain for any network, but this is now 2/3 things I paid for that didn't work as they should...not a great first impression.
Thank you, hope to get an answer!

From OP - manually updating the APN settings seems to fix the problem for a very short period (until the next day, at most), but then the problem returns. Only fix is resetting the APN again, after somebody asking if I got their message or not.
Any more permanent solutions? I set up the APN settings on both PC mobile and Chatr, both were good to go after the usual procedure

Fizz need data for MMS , so you do need have some data left in your plan.

Thanks for the reply - Im currently on a 4gb plan, and have used less than a gb. I don't think that is the issue, as I do seem to receive incoming long sms messages after resetting the APN settings - this is only for a short duration though, and after a day or less the messages stop coming in
