Well this seems to be a problem a lot of people have. I am in the U.K. and using Tesco mobile. Can anyone help?

Hi irvine226,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


It sounds like you’re having an issue sending messages on your iPhone.


We’re happy to assist.


We recommend checking out the steps in the section titled "If you see a red exclamation point" from the article here: If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If you try to send a message and you see  Exclamation mark icon with an alert that says Not Delivered, follow these steps:

1. Check your network connection.

2. Tap  Exclamation mark icon, then tap Try Again.

3. If you still can’t send the message, tap  Exclamation mark icon, then tap Send as Text Message. Messaging rates may apply. Contact your carrier for more information.

You can set up Messages so that it automatically tries to send messages as an SMS when iMessage isn't available. Go to Settings > Messages, and turn on Send as SMS.


We recommend the steps above because they will show you what to do if you’re unable to send text messages on your iPhone.


Please let us know the outcome after giving the above steps a try.


Cheers!
