SMS security messages

I called my carrier and after an hour of troubleshooting many, different things, they sent an update code and also erased my contact information from the phone.

When restarted, the contact information was re-populated and short code numbers came through!

They said as a last resort I would have to replace the SIM card but that it was not necessary in my case.

It was the carrier, clicked solved by accident. I truly appreciate SravanKrA's idea though.

Calling the carrier and troubleshooting for an hour until he came up with deleting contact profile (on his end), turning my phone off and on and letting it repopulate. Hopefully that idea will save someone some time.

No companies, banks, department stores - any agency using short code numbers, none came through.
