Message says Not delivered but it is delivered

Whenever I send a text the red exclamation point pops up and says it is not delivered but it actually does get delivered and when someone texts me it says the same thing to the person texting, but only when they text me. They are not having a problem sending texts to other people

iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.4

If the issue is actually with SMS (green bubble), contact the carrier.

If the issue is with iMessage (blue bubble), turn off iMessage, wait 24 hrs and turn iMessage back on.

Same problem. When my sister (also on iPhone) sends me texts, her display says "not delivered", but I do get the messages.


My phone (or Verizon) is also sending old text messages to another recipient (non-iPhone user, but same network). When I reply to messages, my phone will often send messages that are days old. It often won't send the new message at all. Sometimes it will send both an old message and the new reply. And often it won't send my texts at all (but I don't get notified of the failure), and I miss incoming texts.


It's pathetic.


I'm on iOS 7.1.2, iPhone 4.
