Q: iPhone 4s not getting group messages

Not getting group messages! I have a iPhone 4s and I can't get any group messages while on wifi. if I take wifi off and use my cell data I get all the group messages. why is this? people that know have iphone 5 and they are on wifi and they can get group messages without using data. I don't understand why I can not get them. I asked someone at verizon and he told me it's cuz I have a 3G phone and not 4G. I don't know. does this sound right to anyone ? this is very annoying. thank you.

iOS 7.1.2

Thank you for the reply. I have tried that and I still do not get them. a the messages coming to my phone only when I use my data. I just got done calling apple support about this and they said it's cuz I have a 3G phone. ( just like the guy at verizon said) this just does not make sense to me. I have friends who have 3G phones and get group messages.
