Hello Marthanotes,
Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We're happy to look into this with you. To clarify, is the issue related to regular text messages, iMessages or both? Have you checked to see if all your settings are correct for Messages on your iPhone? If not, check out the article below.
To get you started, please go to Settings > Message and check the following options:
- Is the slider for iMessages in the "ON" position?
- For "Send as SMS" is it enabled?
- Under section: SMS/MMS, is the slider on for MMS Messaging?
Also, take a look at If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone or iPad. As described in section: If you see a red exclamation point, what you're experiencing? If so, what happens when you tap the "!"? Are any additional details provided as to why the message isn't being delivered? Does this issue occur with all text messages or just with a particular contact?
Best regards.
