My old Nokia phone requires me to input this number +44795879890. When I put the sim card in my iPhone I can not find this facility. I can receive text messages, but it fails to send! Any idea what the problem is?

You don't need to manually enter message centre numbers on an iPhone.

Go to the Settings icon, then General, then About. Does it give you the option to download a Carrier Settings Update? If so, download it.

Thank you for reply, that's what I thought. It's interesting that my iPhone works OK with o2, but with virgin it will not send text. I have had this problem for years, even had the weak signal checked out. They say it is only a good reception, but should work. I have had to carry an iPhone and a normal mobile in order to reply! I have now found a CUBOT iPhone on eBay that has 2 sim slots, I have installed o2 and virgin sims and can only send text with o2. The virgin works OK in normal phone with message centre number!
