Can’t get any sms? iPhone still verifying my number?

I just bought a pay as you go card on ebay, and i can’t get any sms, and I’m using iPhone, it says verifying in order to use iMessage and FaceTime. Can someone help? Thanks in advance!

Hi @cyruslego 

When you have topped up with credit and your Big Value Bundle has been added, it can take up to 24 hours before the SIM is ready for use.  See here: Vodafone PAYG .  Further information here: Getting Started 

Help and support from Apple here: Apple Support
