Unblocking calls with *82 and Text Messaging Conflict
My AT&T number is "hard blocked", so for many contacts I have stored a *82 in front of their numbers so when I call them, they will see my name and number on their caller ID. (Most people I know also have "hard blocked" phone numbers.)
However, I have discovered that the "*82" in front of a number always prevents a text message from working. AT&T never reports back that the text failed, but the recipient never receives it.
Frankly, I'm disappointed that AT&T can't figure out how to cope with the *82 in a text message.
Any solutions to this that does not involve un-hard blocking my phone number?
