30 - 90 Min Delay In SMS Messages

wolberine · 09-29-2004, 09:53 PM

Over the past few days I've been having a major delay in receiving text messages, often 30 - 90 minutes or in some cases 12 hours on my Sanyo 8200. I don't have the strongest signal in my house / at my office, but I do have enough of a signal to receive voice calls.

Has anyone experienced anything similar lately? I've been sending / receiving about 10 a day or so.

Thanks

I have been having some what of a problem also to that effect, except with my BCPE, all of my SMS is working fine except that I am having trouble getting my email notifications.

Has anyone heard of any quick fixes?

I have been having issues also. Sometimes it will take up to 12 hours for me to get some.
