Hi,


In the iPhone > Settings > Messages what do you see in Send and Receive ?

The iPhone Number should be listed, ticked but greyed out.

The Apple ID, if it is linked to one, should also be there but ticked and Dark text (editable)

Plus any other linked numbers or emails (again dark text and editable for the tick).


Back in the Messages settings is the SMS/MMS option enabled ?

if it is the app will try iMessages first but if it finds the Number is not registered with iMessages it will send an SMS instead.


What is the Start Conversation From ID set to ?
