iMessage and FaceTime On iPad

Basically, I was using my iPad with no problems until out of nowhere it wont let me send messages. It only said “not delivered” with an exclamation point and every time I retried it wouldn’t work. I cant message ANYONE including group chats, apple users, DMS, etc. But I asked someone to text me and I received their messages but I can’t text anyone.


So I tried restarting my iPad to fix the glitch which caused more problems. It logged me out BOTH iMessage and FaceTime and everytime i tried to login, it said “an error occurred during activation” and kept saying that on and on. My wifi and everything were perfectly fine and I even logged onto iCloud online and it was fine. I did everything checked support online, didn’t help. Someone help!

iPad, iPadOS 16

I cant really contact apple support because it’s asking me to TEXT via iMessage which I can’t if iMessage and FaceTime doesn’t rly work and I’m using iPad so I can’t call. Do they have a online apple support chat?

There is no online chat, so you have no friends or family member whose phone you could use to text with Apple?


if you don't then I guess you're out of luck.
