Finally solved 8ta Iphone 5 sms problem

Solve the problem yourself by:

Firstly to enter the message centre number manually by dialing the 8ta sms settings. To check what you currently have dial: *#5005*7672#
To change to correct 8ta settings dial: 5005*7672* 2781191#

It works and nobody in the call centre could tell me this.

This worked for some people, but my problem was that 8ta consultants are not aware of the fact that they have to set the spending limit of the iPhone 5 on any contract the first time they activate it... If it is set to unlimited you will not be able to send sms'es. So you have to go back to the store and tell them to set it, because they don't know about it...

Woodlands 8ta store was the first people able to tell me that this was the problem after being to the Hatfield and Menlyn branch for 5 days...

So thank you Woodlands!!
