Hi. I’ve recently moved from Sky to O2 and having issues with receiving g OTP messages. I’m receiving messages from other numbers (standard text and iMessages) but not to register for my bank or nhs apps. Can anyone help before I cancel and move back to my old provider.

Sounds like Sky aren't forwarding the bulk SMS. 

You need to speak to o2, If you message O2 on Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG) , they should be able to help you with this. 

And they can give Sky Mobile a kick..  


Just to add  SMS is not guaranteed to  be delivered when sent by bulk delivery services.

 

If you are outside of your 14 days then you will need to pay off the device if on a refresh or any charges

Thanks. Why would sky be the issue. If all other services are working - phone, standard messages etc. I’m within the 14 days , so might be easier to cancel.

Turn off wifi and they should come through ok.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

MNP includes putting a forwarder on their SMS Gateway which then forwards intra-network in this case, so if what @MI5  suggests doesn't work it needs to got to o2 who will work with the Sky Team (otherwise known as o2)
