I guess it's up to him now...either his GIRLFRIEND OR MOBILICITY? What will it be? Answer by tonight or you lose your plan.

This has been happening to me as well. Although I feel like it happened on Wind as well. It's hard to tell if someone is ignoring me or if the messages are delayed. Or both lol.

Mobilicity's delayed texts caused me to miss a date.

True story.

yep, been happening to me consistently the last couple weeks as well, as well as a lot of missed texts, it was bad enough I switched back to Wind today.

+1 on this problem. Ottawa BB3G, already got sim swapped, problem still there.!

Not pure delays, only sms getting stuck on server. once a second text comes along, both come in at same time.

happening to me too in downtown Toronto... i have a BB 9000, 2 SMSs sent 5 minutes ago are sitting on my phone going nowhere.

That's EXACTLY what's been happening to me lately.

That's the million dollar question right there XD

And seems like its quite a widespread issue lately after it was a-okay for awhile there.

+1. Yup, I should have worded it like that instead of what I wrote in the beginning on this thread.

It seems that certain texts will get stuck in the server and then as soon as another person sends a text, I'll get a backlog of texts from previous people.

It happens to me every once in awhile. Good thing I don't text that often anymore thanks to WhatsApp.

Just tweeted Dave the issue.

Well, as of 11:23PM last night you're still alive...so that's a good thing.

I tried to send a few to myself also from another phone and same thing. Does seem widespread and not only to a particular area.

This is just a joke - but it reminded me of what my friends profs told her once.

Her prof: You should think about settling down, and getting married
my friend: yea, but a phd wont ever wake up the next morning and leave you for another girl!

lol ... I was about to say - your FnF plan wont wake up one morning and leave you ... but I stopped

Thanks for tweeting Dave. I don't get Twitter...I've tweeted numerous "celebrities" before, but I've never gotten a reply from them. I've tweeted Dave probably 5 times, and never a reply, so I'm not sure if my tweets are even getting to them. Hence, I gave up and only read their tweets instead.

Also, I've found that even texting apps such as Whatsapp and LINE to not be that reliable. There have been times where I've received messages a few hours or even a day late on Whatsapp. Can't even tell what's reliable anymore it seems. =(

Yes, I'm alive and well, thanks for the concerns guys =P

And thanks (to you and everyone else who have replied on this thread) for confirming the issue.

Pretty funny joke, but oh boy...once we start looking at what could possibly leave us one morning...then none of us would have a significant other. Your friend is too practical. No certificate is worth spending the rest of your life alone!

I ALWAYS send a text to myself after every sms,that is the only way i get the "delivery notification" glad that i have unlimited texting

That's because she was with me, she did get your text but we were in the middle of something which took a while to ***, so that was the actual reason for missing the date with you. LOL
