I can send and receive iMessages to anyone and it will sync across all my devices without any problem, except one, which happens to be my dad.
When he sends me an iMessage, it will send to my iMac and an older iPad I use occasionally, but not my iPhone, MacBook, Watch, or main iPad that I use.
It's an odd one I know, any suggestions? Basically, I keep missing messages from him so would like to get it sorted.
Thanks
Messages on Mac are forwarded through an iPhone.
Since you said the same iMessages is not on your iPhone there are only two possibilities

Thanks SravanKrA. Think you are right about the second option. I notice on all the devices that he could send an iMessage too, it was ones where I had my email address ticked for send and receive, which makes me think for some reason he is sending iMessages to me via my Apple ID email address rather than my phone number. He's on holiday at the moment, but will look at his phone when he gets back.
Not receiving iMessages from a specific person across all my devices
