Can't receive International Text

[roman132]

Hello,

I'm not able to receive text messages from Russia on Verizon, tested on 2 providers: BeeLine and Megafon.

They type my number correctly: +1XXXXXXXXXX. They can receive my text messages.

I just switched from AT&T and it worked there just fine.

How do I fix it?

I just called Verizon customer support, however your operators are incompetent and are not helpful at all.

You need an international package put on your account to be able to receive them. If you have a smart phone your best bet is to just download an app called Voxofon,it will allow you to text internationally for free=]

Hello Roman132,

I know how important it is to stay in contact with everyone, especially if they're overseas.  I will be delighted to provide some suggestions.

First please review this link to ensure we have a partnership with the participating carriers: http://bit.ly/QgACjT

If we do in fact have a partnership you would want to ensure you have a feature called International Dialing on your account. We can add this for you at no additional cost. 

I've followed you so you can send me a Direct Message with your phone number so I can verify this for you.

Thanks,
