1. Has been happening for a while now. Almost a full month of troubleshooting. Started on my iPhone 11. Upgraded to a 15. Issue carried over to new phone.

Steps that I have tried:

turn imessage/facetime on/off. Nope

2. Restart phone after signing out of apple ID and turning off imessage/facetime. Nope

3. Reset network settings. Nope

4. Factory reset. Nope.

5. iOS update from 16 to 17. Nope.

6. Changed PW for apple ID. Nope.

7. All the available apple troubleshooting for this issue. Nope

8. Went to my service provider. Nope

9. Went to a 3rd party apple-certified support store. Nope.

The only thing I have not tried yet is an iOS rollback, but the issue started before I even upgraded to 17.1.

If you can’t turn on or sign in to iMessage or FaceTime on your iPhone - Apple Support

hi there! im thinking this happened to me (i sent out appx 300 texts on friday and have been unable to send out imessages ever since, texts only) ... what did you do to resolve the issue of being blacklisted?

Yeah I've done those. Didn't work.

IF you contacted Apple support as outlined in the link I provided and they can't help then there is nothing else you can do.

Figured out the issue. My number was reported as spam so my number got blacklisted.

Out of curiosity, who reported the blacklist?
