Delayed Text Messages

I've been noticing that my iPhone often receives texts later than they are sent especially by people from other carriers. Has anyone else noticed this, is there anyway to fix this. Thanks.

Yes. I have noticed this as well, that why I don't use the standard text app. I use biteSMS for now on.

I noticed it sometimes too but thought it was probably nothing wrong and just a network issue.

network congestion. i notice issues with verizon customers usually. they get my sms and mms later than others.

So does bite sms eliminate the problem. I've look around and seen a lot of explanations such as network congestion and the number not being ported correctly but it seems like there is no real answer. Its not that big of a deal I'm just wondering If its something I can fix.
