I could believe losing messages. I cannot believe wrong recipient. One of these is a service reliability issue and the other is an insanely unlikely bug.
And what are the chances that the actual recipient ends up being the spouse of your expected recipient? Sounds more like they logged into each other's phones or something.

Extremely doubtful it has anything to do with their plan. iMessage is over the top: only the first SMS activation message has anything to do with your carrier -- after that it's all sent through Apple's servers.
