Hi, when I send a text from my samsung s7, I receive answers from the addressee on my IPad but not my phone. Can anyone help?

The sender is sending via iMessage, not SMS. iMessage only works for Apple devices.

Thank you... Does calling Apple Support and have them take me off the system help at all do you think, or is it a bad idea?

Well, it depends on how reliant are you on iMessage. Do you send pictures and viseos through it a lot? Sending to Apple users are a bit problematic on Android.

You can turn off iMessage on your iPad or have the addressee delete the text string from their phone and try again. Are you coming from an iPhone or just using an iPad?

Yeah! Coming from an iPhone but still using iPad.
