Xfinity Mobile – Outgoing SMS/Calls to Unsaved Numbers and Short Codes Failing
Hello Xfinity Mobile Support,
I am contacting you regarding my Xfinity Mobile number [Edited: "Personal Information"]. I have two mobile lines under my account, and this is the specific line experiencing the issue.
On this line, I am having problems calling and sending SMS messages to numbers that are not saved in my contacts. I am also unable to send SMS messages to short-code numbers. For example, when attempting to send a message to [Edited: "Personal Information"] (FIGS), the message fails and displays “Not Delivered.”
I have already checked the relevant iPhone settings. Screen Time → Communication Limits is set to Everyone, and removing/turning off the relevant restrictions did not resolve the issue.
Please investigate the carrier/network provisioning for [Edited: "Personal Information"] and:
- Verify that voice, SMS, and MMS are fully provisioned on this line.
- Check for any blocks or restrictions affecting short-code SMS, premium messaging, or communication with unsaved/unknown numbers.
- Check for any other network-level calling or messaging restrictions on this specific line.
- Reprovision/refresh the voice and SMS services on this line if appropriate.
- If the line appears correctly provisioned but the issue persists, please escalate this to Xfinity Mobile Advanced Technical Support/network support.
Please note that I have two numbers on my Xfinity Mobile account, so please make sure troubleshooting and any reprovisioning are performed specifically on [Edited: "Personal Information"], not my other line.
I can provide screenshots showing the failed SMS and “Not Delivered” error. Please also provide me with a case/ticket number for this issue so I can reference it if further follow-up is required.
Thank you.
