Question
Hi there,
I have a friend who owns a Blackberry and I own a Motorola krazr. Since I've known him there have been times where he just doesn't get my text messages or my phone calls. I've even left him voice mails and he never gets them. He's as frustrated as I am and I was just wondering what could be the problem and if there's anything we can do to fix it.
Thanks.
Holly
The problem that you are experiencing has nothing to do with either of your phones. It is all about your carrier. You didn't say who your carriers are. If he is not receiving your texts and messages, then his carrier isn't sending them or your carrier isn't. Tell me who your carrier is and who his is and then I can give you a better idea on what may be going on. Thanks. DebiN
