iMessage not working (texts are green but don’t send)

Im using my iPhone 14 on the latest software but this occurred even before I updated. I went on holidays and used another sim but when I came home and swapped my sim over to my old number iMessage would no longer work. It didn’t send blue messages (yes I turned my imessage on and off restarted etc) and it tries to send an sms which never even sends. With or without a sim this is a problem and this whole time I have been connected to wifi. I can text on another apps and my data/internet is fine but for some reason messages has stopped working. Then randomly a few hours later it will magically work again and I can text. But then for example when I sleep and wake up boom same problem. I’ve tried just about every solution I can find other than factory resetting. Another thing to note is that this is not with just one person and I can no longer message anyone regardless of what phone they have.

iPhone 14, iOS 18
