127 or 128 mean in my incoming text log
Does anyone know where text messages are coming from when it is displayed in the incoming text log as 127 or 128? I seem to be getting many of these codes but I don't recall receiving the texts…. But I see it in my text message log.
→ 128 texts show up a) when you receive a voicemail notification and b) when you call your voicemail.
Text 2300 is a little more general and will show up when:
- You receive a picture / screenshot / GIF
- You send a picture / screenshot / GIF to another T-Mobile user or
- You were part of a group message and photos / screenshots / GIFs were shared or somebody reacted to a message or photo (for example - “Liked a comment or photo”).
This started happening around July as my guess is there was a system update. Hope this helps!
I finally actually figured this out. This has to do with visual voicemail. Any usage or access to it pops up as a 127 message on your bill. I even tried to change my passcode and it came up as that 127 code.

I asked customer service tonight and they informed me that it was like Bank codes and codes they sent you from T-Mobile but they never showed up on my line and I get codes all the time but they show up on my husband's
I feel like this might be messages coming from Instagram. I don't have one but do any of your accounts have an instagram and are getting messages from it?
Well, All, i tried a hunch today. I send an e-mail to his phone as a message. And low and behold, it showed up as from 127. So 127 is an incoming message from an e-mail.
All I have found so far is it may be a blocked number trying to call. My Daughters and my phone have had it a few times. But my Husbands is getting it daily. It is definitely bothering me. I worry his phone has been hacked.

Have you figured it out yet? It is only on my husbands line as well and I'm very curious
I am getting the number 2300 and 128 on the text messaging instead of an actual phone number. What is this?? I would like to know
I seen on other companies that 128 is from a blocked number.. could be similar
Happening on one of my lines as well. Contacted support but no answer. Nothing coming up in internet searches.???
