For a while now, ever since Koodo dropped support except for phones they sell, I don’t get Pics with images any more. If that’s not annoying enough, now they send multi-copies (see image below). of the same thing every day.
- This happens even if I disable the mobile and WiFi. They come in when I enable both.
- If I leave both WiFi and Mobile on, they come in - in the morning around 0900.
- If I take the battery out, wait 15 seconds and plug it back in (refresh). The still come in.
- I tested this with friends: Using the same 80kB jpeg.
Telus: Sent Text w/ pic - waited it doesn't come in and, he just text and the text comes in.
Rogers: Same tests - same results.
Koodo: Same tests. ONE w/ pic, the other a plain text. They come as “You received an MMS, but it expires on:
2024-06-07-20:10
18 minutes ago. I had turned the phone on 1024 that’s A.M. “20:10 is 10:10 P.M. That wasn’t 18 minutes!
- Please, this is not about the part where Koodo won’t allow MMS on year-old non Koodo phones. I get that. What is a problem is that Koodo taunts me with these mega-copies so I have to disable the phone while I sleep, and miss important messages. Most people that know I’m on Koodo don't send messages between 2100 and 0900 and sender sent ONE text i the Koodo test above.
Could it be the Koodo sender sent one text and Koodo is just making certain, with copies, that I get a Koodo Alert message that I didn't get the message?
SUMMARY:
I would like to leave the phone on overnight, to receive text messages, but Koodo thinks text messages from a Koodo phone are MMS. How do I stop Koodo reminding me I received a MMS but didn’t receive MMS over and over and over again due to ONE text.
Thanks - your work here as a volunteer is gratefully appreciated.
