"I transferred my number via PAC code 2 days ago. I have a severe Split Port Routing error. I can receive normal texts from friends, but the network is completely blocking all A2P short-code verification texts and banking OTPs. Frontline support told me they couldn't help, but this is a provisioning error on the network. Please escalate this directly to the Technical Network Team to run an SMS Reprovisioning Script on my file."

    For iPhone:
