I had this problem… My SMS messages were delayed for up to 24 hours. I'm running an iPhone X with iOS 15.5. I had already tried rebooting my phone, and reseating my SIM card.
I called T-Mobile technical support, and she had me "Reset my Network Settings" on my iPhone, and things started working again. Warning, the steps below will require you to re-login to your WiFi network(s) and reconnect any Bluetooth devices.
Here’s how she “Reset my Network Settings”:
- Go to Settings > General > “Transfer or Reset iPhone” (at the bottom).
- Select “Reset”, then pick the 2nd option… “Reset Network Settings”.
- The phone will reboot, and then you’re ready to go!
¡Buena suerte!
