I recently ported my number to Verizon from Boost. Now, unless a contact is also a Verizon customer, they are unable to receive my text messages. Please help! Verizon support has told me everything is fine on their end, but it obviously is not. My mother has AT&T and called them to check things on her end. They say it is an issue with Verizon. I lie heavily on being able to text my staff and have way too many business contacts to change my phone number.
