MMS Reception with Lebara

Domdonv -

Hello,

I know that Lebara does not support MMS in their plans.

Not being able to send MMS doesn’t bother me, but not being able to receive them for various reasons does.

I wanted to know if anyone knew what happens to a MMS sent from a Bouygues, SFR, etc. network to the Lebara network.

Does it disappear into the depths of telecom networks? Is the person who sent it notified that their MMS was rejected? Is the person who is supposed to receive it automatically informed by the Lebara network that someone attempted to send them an MMS?

In short, what actually happens?

Thank you in advance

Hello.

It is the sending of MMS that is not supported and not the receiving of MMS, which is likely deducted from your data plan.

I object to the response provided by the user "bazfile": the reception of MMS is not supported by Lebara, as stated on their page:
https://www.lebara.fr/fr/faq/utiliser-les-services-internet/envoyer-des-mms.html

I quote, in italics below, the above page:

Unfortunately, the Lebara service does not allow sending/receiving MMS. This means you cannot attach images to your SMS.

You can send your images, photos, videos using your Internet connection.

To answer your question, the sender of the MMS is quickly notified on their screen (at least, that's how it appears on an Android smartphone) that the message is not supported by the network, and it may eventually say "not delivered"; it is therefore up to the sender to monitor their phone during and after sending. For my part, I inform my important contacts that I only receive attachments via the internet (and not SMS/MMS).
