On iPhones there is a setting associated with phone numbers that controls whether to send with iMessage or regular SMS text. It's specific to the destination phone number so the fact that it works to your work number doesn't tell you anything about your personal number. Have them delete your personal phone number save and then add it back after to see if it works after.

Tried that too. It tells them that it's sending as a regular sms text when they send it but I don't get it.
- xray2 years agoHeroThe other possibility is that you have their phone number blocked in your contacts.
- johnehood2 years agoFriendly NeighbourNo. I've narrowed it down to just not being able to receive sms texts from certain people. Even some people who can text me using rcs, they can't if it's an sms. Only seems to be an issue when going from people using rogers to me.
- xray2 years agoHeroYeah, RCS goes over data/WiFi so it's not the same path.
Can you SMS them?
Can they voice call you?
