Block texts to competition numbers

Nkp123 — Mon, 12 Dec 2022 08:37:22 GMT

Hi there, I have a problem with entering radio competitions, texting entries to an 8212 number. Please can you advise how to restrict access to these numbers? Thanks.

Hi @Nkp123.

Do you get an error message when you try to text these numbers?

Do you know if you've got a spend cap on your account?

Hi Jon,

No error message and the price cap doesn't seem to affect it.

Thanks,
Nathaniel

Thanks @Nkp123.

Are you able to send normal text messages.

Are you sure you've got the right short code? They're usually five digits not four.

The HEART radio competition is 82122.
