Yeah, if there are regional problems with it, that'd make some sense. In US (where I am) it may be a lot more reliable.

...Which also makes some sense as US stuck with SMS and transitioned pretty much directly to MMS and RCS (for non-Apple). And carriers have been pushing RCS.

I'm guessing UK is like a lot of other countries where people have switched to WhatsApp or other proprietary chat systems?
