[Bug 1480554] [NEW] High costs due to SMS being sent multiple times when having a bad network connection

 

Public bug reported:

When having a bad network connection, Ubuntu tries to send SMS multiple
times but fails to recognize which messages have already been sent,
resulting in very high costs due to the same message actually being sent
several times.

I found this when looking through my provider's monthly reports and I
remember being on train journeys with very bad network connections on
these days. See the attached screenshots.

==========

This happened on a Nexus 4 running on the stable channel (with up-to-
date images at the given times).

** Affects: telephony-service (Ubuntu)
