ported number not working correctly
I was a TMobile prepaid customer for years. I recently rolled my number over to a standard post-post Essentials plan. I got my temp SIM card, installed it and then called support to get my previous pre-paid number ported over. Everything seemed to work fine EXCEPT when I send text messages to two friends that I know are on Android, my number shows up as the temp SIM number still. (I'm using Google Messages on my phone and/or For Web). All my friends that are on Apple devices it seems to show up as the old, prepaid number that was ported over. Digging into it a little more, I noticed that if in Messages I send my texts as SMS/MMS and not RCS, then my texts go through on the pre-paid number that was ported. But if I leave RCS on, and I text those two Android users, then they receive everything on the temp SIM number still. So it seems to be linked to RCS vs SMS/MMS itself. But I don't understand why or what to do about it.2.2KViews0likes3Comentarios
