Texting and International Mobile Number
You need to add some credit to your account. Texts to US numbers are chargeable.
The error message didn't come through immediately so - at first - it wasn't clear that it related to that. Additionally it was triggered by a group chat in which I couldn't tell that one of the participants was in the US (as iMessage on the Mac supports group messaging between iOS/Android users).
As for a more useful message I'd suggest:
"International texts aren't covered by your plan, please add credit to your account." and, ideally, add a link that actually goes to further information.
ChrisKempt Doesn't iMessage work on data rather than SMS?
Your suggested text sounds fair enough - why not send it in?
Not if there are android users in the group, those users get SMS instead.
Where would I send it?I don't know much about Adenoid users - interesting!
I would be inclined to send your suggestion initially as a complaint solely because I think that those bypass the Support Team (it's above their pay grade I think).
Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
