Unable to send MMS picture on Sky mobile.

Posted 17th May 2020

I am trying to use MMS to send a picture on Sky mobile.
Phone is running Marshmallow (can not upgrade).
Have had settings resent and they look correct.
Tried a different messaging app but still no good.
Any ideas?

Does Sky Mobile charge for picture messages?
Picture messages (MMS) are not included in your plan

Maybe your account won't allow it i:e it may charge extra for MMS. If it's a pic you're trying to send, why not use Whats-app? It uses your data allowance.

The person I am sending too has not got Whats-app installed as it is a new mobile.
Its a standard Sky unlimited talk/texts and 2Gb data.

I cannot do that on plus.net because I have capped my extra spend on top of the contract to £0. MMS is a chargeable service I believe.

Are these the correct settings in your phone?

If the other person does not have Whatsapp, try sharing as a link using google photos, which will be free also and doesn't require anything but an internet connection on the other device.
