Can I still get text messages when my phone is turned off?

You can also receive text messages when your mobile phone is turned off.

If it is only overdue, you can pay directly in the business hall if it does not exceed 24 hours. If the phone is down for more than 24 hours, it will take time to turn it back on. After paying the fee, the system will automatically scan and open it for the user, which will not exceed 24 hours at most.

The mobile phone is in a semi-shutdown state, and it can receive short messages and answer calls, but it can't make calls, send short messages and surf the Internet. Arrears and semi-downtime mean that the user fails to pay during the payment period from 5th to 25th of each month, and the user number will be semi-downtime on 26th. If the arrears of last month have not been paid off on the 29th, it will enter a state of complete shutdown, and the mobile phone number will not be used normally.

Brief introduction of downtime

Downtime refers to the suspension of mobile phone service, and users can't use all services such as telephone, SMS and Internet. There are generally two kinds of downtime. One is that the user actively applies to the operator to suspend the mobile phone service by reporting the loss or stopping the phone number. The other is that the communication operator suspends the user's mobile phone service when the user's mobile phone account balance is zero or the given credit line has been consumed.

The number is not registered in real name or the registration information is incomplete. If the real-name registration is not completed within the time limit, the service will be suspended and the real-name registration needs to be completed in time. There are two main ways to register the real name of mobile phone number: face-to-face authentication in business hall and online certification. Among them, in online certification, unlike the information such as photos of hand-held ID cards submitted before, operators have switched to "video recording" for authentication since last month, and it is necessary to record a real video of the owner of the mobile phone number and upload it before completing the application for supplementary registration in the real-name registration system.
