Indosat Number Can't Receive SMS? This is the solution

If the problem is not being able to send messages, it could be because of the credit and network. But what if the problem is that the Indosat number cannot receive SMS? It is impossible if the problem is pulse and network.

It is common for every smartphone user to experience some problems with the device they are using, especially the provider they are using.

Of course, we often complain about network lag, can’t make calls and can’t even receive SMS. This can all happen to any existing provider.

Moreover, on Indosat cards, various customer complaints arise, such as slow internet due to FUP limits and problems regarding cellphones that cannot receive SMS.

Causes of Indosat Numbers Cannot Receive SMS and How to Overcome

1. There may be a problem with your software

Can’t receive messages? Maybe your mobile device is damaged.

To test whether your device is really damaged, you can test it by installing the problematic Indosat SIM card on another cellphone.

If the result is that the other device can receive messages, it means that the device is at fault. But if the other device also can’t receive messages, then the fault is the card.

Sometimes cases like this are also mixed with network problems, try rebooting first who knows the problem can be solved.

2. You Just Upgraded Network SIM To 4G

The next cause can also be because you just upgraded the network to 4G. The process of updating this network usually takes up to 24 hours, so all services related to Indosat numbers will experience interruptions for a full day, including the problem of not being able to receive SMS.

You can do this by waiting for the 24 hours to end.

3. Your Storage Memory Is Not Enough

One of the reasons why Indosat numbers can’t receive the next SMS could also be because your memory doesn’t get enough messages. Although it rarely happens, but first try to check the remaining storage space of your phone.

If in fact because the memory is full, the solution is simply to delete photos, videos, cache, or uninstall unnecessary applications until you have enough memory again to receive messages.

4. SMSC Number (Message Center Number) Not Installed/Invalid

The message center number plays a big role in your success in receiving and sending messages. The message center number or SMSC should be installed automatically when you install the card on your cellphone, but sometimes because of a small bug, the cellphone can’t even capture the message center number so you have to do it manually.

To overcome these causes, first find out the SMSC of the Indosat card, namely: +62816124 / +6285500000

Then enter the SMSC menu by following the method below:

Type *#*#4636#*#*, after typing the last *, you will automatically be taken to network settings.
Select ‘Phone Information / Device Information’.
Scroll down and look for the SMSC menu.
Enter the Indosat SMSC number above, +62816124 / +62855000000.
Then click ‘Update/Update’.
Refresh your phone, try to check whether it can receive messages or not.

5. Your Number May Be Inactive

Check whether your number is still active or not by checking it in the dial up menu. Press *123#, then select the ‘Status and Info’ menu, then select ‘Check Status’.

Later, information on the status of the active period will appear, the status for when the card is active, and a description of whether the Indosat card is still active or not. You can also check in the MyIM3 application or SMS. Easier to do directly in the dial up menu.

Always monitor the active period by extending the active period of Indosat

Of the 5 reasons why Indosat numbers cannot receive SMS, the most common is due to incorrect SMSC (contact center number), unfilled or incorrect number.

Different providers, different numbers. Since you are using an Indosat card, it is clear that the SMSC number is only +62816124 / +6285500000.
