Texting Issue to Rogers?

So far things are going smoothly now with my Motorola G Stylus (2020), however...something I just ran into and was wondering if anyone has had any experience like this. I can text to any of my contacts except for one; he is on a Roger's plan using an iPhone 12. Strangely, I can call him. But when I text him he receives nothing. I don't think the phone he is using is the issue as my gf has a iPhone SE and co-worker with an iPhone as well (7 I think).

Figured it out, it was entirely because I didn't have 1 in front of the area code, LOL. Number was in my contacts as (xxx) xxx-xxxx. The moment I put in a 1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx, they're able to receive my texts. Crazy!

Can he text you? If so, can you return text him?

Did you have an iPhone before?

I'll ask him to text me and see what happens. I did have an iphone before years ago (iphone 4).
