- Go to your phone's Settings;
- Now select your Applications;
- Among them, you must click on the Messages option;
- In the window that opens, find “Premium SMS Access”;
- Finally, click on “Always Allow”.

If none of the previous tips have worked, it's time to find out what's wrong. It could be something quite serious with your chip or your carrier.
As already mentioned, it is very important to confirm whether the other messages are arriving. If they are not, then the problem really is with your device.
Remove the chip from your device, then insert it again very carefully. Take the opportunity to clean it too, if it is dirty.
If it's not the SIM card, contact your carrier. Tell them what happened and see if there's a problem. For example, your SIM card may have been blocked.
Finally, there is one more possibility to consider: the possibility that it was not a fault with your device!
Especially if all other functions of your device are normal. In this case, it is possible that the error was on the part of the person who sent the SMS.
