What actions to take when the messages do not reach the addressee or even do not want to leave the mobile phone?
Lack of funds
As soon as such a problem arose, the first thing thatYou need to do is check the amount of money on the balance sheet.

The servers of the operators at such a time do not withstand the loads, which is why all the communication problems occur. If on such days SMS is not sent, what should I do? You should try to do this a little later when the servers are unloaded.
