Green Text Not Delivering
I’ve done everything Apple Support suggested to get green text to deliver. Still can’t send green text. Blue goes thru just fine.

Unless you also have an iPhone, your iPad cannot send or receive SMS or MMS messages to phone numbers - as these are Cellular Carrier features. Without an iPhone, your iPad is limited to sending/receiving messages via the Apple-proprietary Messages App.
Native iMessages are directed to Apple recipients by their registered email addresses - and not by their Cellular phone numbers.
To use SMS/MMS messaging from the iPad Messages App, your iPhone must be logged-in to iCloud with the same AppleID - and message forwarding to your iPad must be enabled on the iPhone.

I hope this is helpful in clarifying your iPads Messaging features.

You would need to have this set up Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch - Apple Support
Please let us user know what " i've done everything Apple support suggested" means.
I turned off iMessages, turned off iPad, turned iPad back on, turned iMessages back on. Verified Apple ID.
Thank you! I will check my iPhone and Mac to make sure they are all talking to each other.
