    It simply won't work. I can send multimedia, but not receive anything. At all. I've tried:

    1)Different phones
    2)Manually inputting settings into each phone, as well as using Meteors settings
    3)Gotten a new sim card

    Anyone shed any light on this - because it's really pissing me off - Meteor are about as useful as a torn condom, pretty much saying they can't do anything.

    Have you tried sending one to yourself? Usually this activates your MMS.

    Have Meteor said your MMS is enabled? How large are the images your trying to recieve?

    Yeah I tried sending to myself. Sends no problems, just never delivers. When I send to others, they get it no problems.

    Not even trying to send images, just blank MMS (>1kb). Meteor have said everything is fine.

    I wouldn't worry about delivery reports on MMS, they rarely work.

    What networks are your trying to send to?

    What phone are you and the others using?

    I didn't mean delivery reports. As in, they're people I know and they're simply getting the messages whereas I cannot recieve anything, from myself or others. I've tried sending from Meteor to Meteor, O2 and Vodafone.

    Phones used were a Sagem Z5, Nokia 6680 and some other model whose number escapes me, and an imate SP5.

    Phones being sent to vary, but I hardly see why that's an issue.

    could it be that the handsets you are trying to recieve mms on are not compatible with meteors servers?

    i noticed 2years ago that when i send mms some of them are delayed in being recieved by exactly 8 or 24 hours and then more are never recieved and meteor had some tech guy working on it

    but they never explained properly what the issue was and as this still happens it has never been resolved! i put it down to the volume of mms i send but they are free so they should all be recieved!

    meteor had a massive problem with this a few months ago. half the network could send mms but not receive. the problem you're having is almost certainly the same problem so call them and get them to raise a trouble ticket with the technical team
