What’s the error message?

Probably liquidity issue...

You probably lack inbound liquidity on your Phoenix channels.

This is why i stick to WOS, it just works.

not keeping more than a handful of sats on there anyway.

life savings always in cold storage, not a hot wallet 😃

As was mentioned almost certainly an inbound liquidity issue. If you opened the Phoenix wallet with 1 channel and spent nothing or only a small amount, you probably have little or no inbound liquidity. I would recommend trying the Phoenix add liquidity feature

Make sure phoenix is open on your phone while the payment is being sent or it will not be able to receive a payment.

Phoenix does auto liquidity adjustment so try to just have the wallet open when you are sending.

And make sure you aren’t on a US ip address trying to use WOS also, lol.

I don’t think a US IP address is needed

No support for WoS in the U.S. anymore. Turn on your VPN in another country like Mexico and then try to send the same payment 🤙🏼

It's called phoenix sucks but I still use it for some reason
