For no reason at all today text messages are now coming to me in European formatting. I can’t respond to the text since it’s not formatted properly and it’s not associated with a contact any longer since the number is formatted wrong. I haven’t travelled out of the country or made any changes. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?
