RECEIVing texts for digits
Why can't I get text messages from Amazon for account verification OTP to(#8563084006 From didgits line)
Hey there! I am very sorry but DIGITS does not support shortcodes. In order to receive shortcodes, you will have to have them delivered to the SIM line.
Digits DOES NOT provide an option to receive codes or phone verification text messages. I am a T-mobile client with an iPhone, and I signed up for digits as if it were an eSIM. Although the Digits satisfies all other options, it does not allow you to receive notification texts or "codes." I found this very disappointing, as now I understand just to get a code sent to my phone, I will have to purchase an eSIM from T-Mobile, which is only available on a "payment plan" option, and not through me regular T-Mobile account. Seems like a bait and switch to me regarding the Digits, which is useless for the main thing a lot of people want it for, receiving codes and text verification texts. I like the original commenter, do not want to provide my "real" private phone number to online, one-time, vendors.
