Well... I got one out of two of our iPhones to work. (AT&T)

We have the Family Unlimited Text plan, and my iPhone sends and receives MMS just fine and dandy. My wife's iPhone does not, however, send or receive. She can see that she has MMS messages in her in-box, but it tells her that she has a fetch error whenever she tries to access the messages.

Well, I decided to go down to the corporate AT&T store and see if I could get them to enable MMS by stating that I needed it for another phone that I would switch my sim card to. They got really defensive and angry, and said that the computer locked them out of doing that, and that any account that has an iPhone simply cannot enable MMS. They are purposely trying to keep us from making our own solutions for something that we should, by all rights, have access to. I mean, I am paying for MMS, since I have a Family Unlimited messaging plan. I asked to go over their heads, but they refused to give me their district managers name or number. In any case, the were extremely resistent to allowing anyone with an iPhone to have MMS. Why are they so resistant? It just strikes me as extremely obstinate, and intentionally obtuse.

In any case, I didn't want them to deactivate the MMS I could use on my phone, so I didn't tell them my account information. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might get my wife's iPhone to work with MMS?

Holy crap! Don't ever address MMS issues in the Apple forum. Those people drink more Kool-Aid than first graders. :o

Check out that thread, I can almost imagine them slavering drool all over their chest as they insult anyone who talks about the iPhone's missing features. :D I am sure I pissed off a fair number of them. They seem to think that if I think there is a problem with the phone, then I must hate it. It reminds me of those people that say if you have a problem with the American government, then you should just get out. Absolute zealotry.
