Hi, CaliMariee.


Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.


I understand that you are unable to receive text messages from a specific person. I am not sure what you have tried already, but will attempt to give you some steps that you may have not tried already. I would recommend checking to make sure that this person has not been blocked by mistake.



Go to Settings > Messages > Blocked and make sure that they're not on your block list.


If they are not blocked on your device, try going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.


If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


You may need to also process some of these steps on their device as well.
