iMessage and findmyphone not working

Hello All!

My mother just recently switched providers and ever since she switched her iMessages stopped working even though it states it’s on and she used to be able to see my location but now says no location found even though I share it with her on find my phone, I can still see her location though. Does anyone know how to fix this issue??
