has anyone had any problems receiving mms from any networks, only a couple of pals on o2 have sent me stuff which I have not received. I contacted vodafone and they could see no problems. I also got a mate on vodafone to mms me and his came through. Weird

MMS is not a standard protocol between providers. So it is possible, that some msgs gonna miss the address.

Vodafone have had problems wiith there MMS service for about 2- 3 weeks now.

Orange, T-Mobile, 3 and 02 have no problems in sending anything to each other.
Voda seems to have a compatibility issue with alll of them.

Its no good ringing custoemr care as they are not aware of any problems. It has been reported on here a couple of weeks ago that people were having problems.

Voda was also the last uk operator to sign agreements in the uk and. If you send a mms less than 49kb, you have more of a chance of getting there than larger files. Im not sure if voda allow up to 100kb like the other 4 networks do. I know if i send pics to my friends on voda i always have problems.one of the got the pic 6 times the other day, 1 got it a week later, 1 got in 2 bits (not sure why) and ive got loads that just havnt gone. So i know stop sending them. Other networks I have no problems with (Im on Orange) infact ive sent a large file this morning to a friend as its her birthday on 02 and he received it with out any problems.

Hope this helps

You can send to you home network as its not leaving there own system. Send outwards and forget it. I have always had problems with Voda MMS. To be honest i try not to send to them any more.
Most of my friends have no gone to either 02, Orange Virgin and i have never had a problem with any of them. I send videos and everything.

I know Voda SMS was having probs last week.

Sent 1 sms and my friend received it 6 times, Thought it was me. some one sent a sms from a differnet network and she received it 4 times.

One of my friends was receiving SMS on Voda for 3 weeks 4 times a day (The same SMS) spoke to voda on 4 seperate occasions, no one could helped. in the end i stopped it from sending.
