cannot sms one contact

Suddenly I cannot SMS one of my contacts from my IPhone 6s. He has a basic mobile phone and up until 4 weeks ago could receive SMS messages from me but now he never receives them. I can receive messages from him. My phone does not tell me that the message has not been delivered. As far as i was aware it had gone successfully.

I have spoken to Apple Support and they could not help.

I have tried the obvious -

Restored phone

Deleted previous conversation

Deleted and re-entered contact details

Manually typed number for message


Nothing has worked. Any ideas??? Help

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.2.1

SMS is a carrier feature, you and that contact will need to contact your cell phone provider to resolve the issue.
