I know 3 people on Visible, and none of them can receive text messages. Everyone can send text messages. Visible technical support has not been helpful. Let me know if you have the same experience.

I use a Google Voice account to test text messaging to my iPhone on Visible. These texts go over the cellular network.
Just did a test going in both directions and all worked fine

Working after:
turn off data roaming off
text TRANSACT to 67777 to resubscribe to texting
restart phone
It is outrageous that Visible would break everyone's service, provide no communication when they have our email addresses, and leave users to spend hours on chat

as of this morning I am now unable to send out text messages. I tried texting TRANSACT to 67777 and it failed. I’ve been trying everything that has been advised and nothing is working. I can’t even get a respond through Facebook messenger from them

I tried this and nothing happened..... I didn't get the reply. Turn off data roaming and restart the phone. Have done it 3 times and nothing has changed.

Gm:
I tried the above fix and no receipt of texts.
I live in NJ outside of Philly and no texts rec'd for over 28 hours now.
No reply from Visible on either Twitter account either.
Any other tips?
Thanks!
A

Turning off/on data worked for my wife's phone. I also tried turning on/off airplane mode.
I'm not sure what TRANSACT means but try sending yourself text messages from your email client
To send SMS [YOUR_PHONE_NUMBER]@vtext.com
To send MMS [YOUR_PHONE_NUMBER]@vzwpix.com

as of 3/2/23 at 3:48pm eastern time, I just started receiving limited text from a group text. I don't know if this means Visible texting is slowing come back online, The people in this group use Verizon, Straighttalk, ATT with iPhones, Google and Samsung phones. I'm praying for the best for Visible!

Please clarify your post- turn off data roaming off? Makes no sense.

My data roaming setting has always been on, so that didn't matter. Regardless, I just had my text app return to normal functioning. Visible evidently fixed the problem. Woo-hoo!

Were they able to fix it for you? Spent 4 hours in chat yesterday & only ended up worse off than when I started. Miraculously better this a.m. but as of noon today, can’t receive SMS again.

Realized late yesterday, wasn’t receiving SMS (android) messages on my iPhone. I could send but not receive and only SMS was affected. Spent 4 hours chatting/troubleshooting with customer service that I will never get back. It was a nightmare. Was told it is a known problem but, “lets do some troubleshooting.” Didn’t make sense to me, but went ahead anyhow. Had multiple additional problems along the way. Ended the evening with no service whatsoever and “We will have to wait until tomorrow (today) to see if it is better in the morning”. No idea what happened overnight, but this a.m., I had voice calls again and texting. Up until noon today, I had full capability over wi-fi. Unfortunately, since noon I have not been able to receive SMS….so right back where I started. Soooooo hesitant to contact CS since they seemed to make the issue worse, even if temporary?????

I had to go into my message settings and click on the “addresses” allowed to send and receive messages then click on my phone number. Somehow it got removed as an active option when porting my phone number over. That fixed it for me.

The texting TRANSACT did not work for me last night but it seemed to work tonight, getting texts again so you may want to try that again.

I'm getting dinner texts but not from my contacts with Verizon. Also, I can not set up RCS "chat" services. My configuration is stuck on "trying to verify number" I'll keep waiting believing Visible has got this

Hello, I was having the same issues. After waiting 2 hours I told tech support you need to reset my esim. He did that and cycled my phone and it worked. I hope that helps! You just need to be firm and tell them to do it

Stopped receiving text messages last night 2/27. Technical support still has no answer to my ticket (I think my ticket might of even been canceled). iPhone user in the Chicago area. Everything else works fine.
