B of A text with login code not being received - Solved

I don't know if deleting a blocked contact worked, but after I did that to one random contact, I suddenly received multiple texts with a code.


Receiving a text from Bank of America, with a login code, stopped working. No matter how many times I have their system resend it, I get no text. If I could see the caller id number, I could check my blocked contacts list, but I have no idea what the caller's number is. Any ideas on figuring out what the problem is?

The text is going to be a SMS message that is a carrier service. Check with your carrier to make sure SMS texting is working properly and that they do not have any call blocking features turned on that will prevent it from being sent to your device. You can also view the call/message logs on your cellular account to verify if the cellular provider received the SMS message. You can't view the contents of the message there, but you can see the number and time if it was received, that may help you determine the number to check if it is blocked on your device.

If you have a VPN then uninstall it.


Check Settings, Apps, Messages, send &Receive, that your number is there, if NOT then...


1.    Settings, Apps, Messages,


2.    turn off iMessage   


3.    Settings, Apps, Facetime,


4.    Turn off Facetime,   


5.    Power down the phone


6.    Turn on the phone again 


7.    Settings, Apps, Messages, turn on iMessage,   


8.    Settings, Apps, Facetime, turn on Facetime
