Hey there Clevis,
thanks for reaching out.
We actually received notice that certain customers are reporting that intermittently, an SMS sent from their device is received 2 or 3 times at the destination. We're still investigating this matter and we're working on fixing this asap Thanks for your understanding.
Don't hesitate to reach out again if there's anything else we can help with in the meantime.

This issue should be fixed now.
The issue is not fixed for me. In fact it has been like this for an entire year and a half now. It's intermittent but it does happen a lot.
A lot of my friends complain. I even try to call the fido hotline to get them to 'reset my network'. Happens on EVERY phone I use... even happened before I switched to a nano SIM card.
Hi @Imtheboss & welcome to the Community!
To figure out what's causing this, I'll need to ask you a few questions:
1) What's the model of the phone that you're using?
2) Are the repeated texts only with certain contacts or is it with all of them?
3) Are you currently on LTE?
4) If so, have you tried disabling LTE to see if the issue persists?
Thanks!
@Imtheboss Let me know how it goes with LTE disabled! Also, would you be able to test your SIM card in a different phone to see if it changes anything?
Thanks
same issue. why is there no update on the web-site or on your twitter accounts? do you have an ETA on when this will be solved? this has been happening for at least 18 hours now. at least provide some proper communication.
This is happening to me also - a friend gets my messages numerous times although on my end they look like they've been sent only once. Is there anything we can do?
