Why won't my iPhone send pictures as a text message?

I'm signed up for the unlimited everything plan on sprint. But for more than a few months now my iPhone stopped letting me send pictures as text messages. Every time I try to send a picture as a text (not an iMesaage) I get a text saying "SprintFreeMsg: The account holder has restricted access to this feature on this phone". Why is it doing this, and how can I fix it?

  • Will my message be delivered if sent as text message on iphone? My friend said that she was having phone problems earlier today. My message was being sent as an imessage, but I guess she wasn't receiving everyone of them, just getting the notifications that they were sent to her but she couldn't read them. I then responded to her, but it was sent as a text message this time and i have gotten no response. I'm not as much concerned about her responding or not, I just want to know if she will receive the message.
  • Why won't my iPhone 4s send pictures in i Message? A few weeks ago my phone started having trouble sending photos through iMessage. I can send texts but photos won't work. It takes forever and once it finally sends it pops up unable to send and then i have to do it via text message.
  • Why won't my 5c send a message as MMS when it's a long message to a non iPhone user? Whenever I type a LONG message to an SMS user (says Text Message in the messaging "box") my 5c won't convert to MMS and the recipient gets the message in dozens of out of order messages instead of the whole fluid message. I have MMS on in Settings. What can I do and why is it doing this?
  • Why could i have gotten a text message with no text box? Yesterday morning, I looked at my smart phone ( android) and I got a text from someone. I clicked on the contact's text and there was no message, no blank bubble, nothing. It just looked like one of us was getting ready to start a conversation but no message was sent. (Extra info: I may be wrong but I think this certain contact has an iphone.) What could cause this? I don't want to ask the person because it would be extremely awkward.
