Howdy, Weird problem I have encountered. I have two cell numbers/Two phones (Work and coverage issues So I have two phones) So the issue is for the last two weeks I have been text messaging some contacts from the 807#, Now I am back in the land of GSM coverage so I am back to my 403#, My contacts have both of my #'s in my contact profile in contacts on there phones, I text them from the 403# and there reply goes to the 807#/Phone, I even had them delete our message convo's in messaging and still same issue- I send a message from 403# and there reply goes to 807#. My contacts all running iPhones running Os7

Any ideas? A google search did not turn up anything.

Sounds like you may have iMessage enabled on both devices. Try going to settings and turning off iMessages on both devices. Then re enable on your primary device.
