Can't setup "cellular Fallback" for Digits on Verizon Smartphone

I have my Digits app working on a verizon smartphone, along with my T-mobile talk and text line.

 

I'm trying to setup "cellular fallback" and it asks for the number of that phone. I enter the number and it asks me to enter the code I was sent by text.  But I never get the text message.

  • Same issue here, except it happens on both VZW and FirstNet (AT&T). On VZW, never get a text message. On First Net, I get an empty message from (844)-839~8177. Calls to this number get an intercept on FirstNet saying number not reachable, on VZW, it just fails. I have also tried a regular AT&T phone and same deal as FN: empty message from the same number.

     

    'Frustrating as you must use a cellular fallback mode if you want to use Bluetooth or you're in an area where LTE data throughput is poor. Digits is a great feature but I just end up forwarding my T-Mo line as digits is very unreliable over cellular network, works great on WiFi but unstable over LTE/5G.
