I am having difficulty receiving messages from several different busnesses for two party authentication. Other messages come through fine. I have checked my settings and do not have any numbers block for messaging, mail, facetime or phone.

Is there a setting that will prevent my phone from receiving messages other than blocked caller?

To confirm, do you have a filter enabled in the Messages app? To check, open Settings > Messages, scroll down to Message Filtering, then check if “Filter Unknown Senders” is enabled here.

If you are still unable to receive SMS passcodes, please contact your cellular carrier for more help. 


Cheers!
