Problem with receiving bank's code from Europe (Poland)

MariuszK2 — Tue, 11 Jan 2022 03:01:37 GMT

Hello. I moved to Canada, but I have Poland's bank account and bills to pay. Since the beginning of December (after ~2 years), I have stopped receiving the codes to authorize the banking transfers. Text messages are going out from the bank (I have checked that by calling them) but I'm not receiving them at my end. I can receive other text messages except this.

That's weird that it stopped working abruptly, and it might be difficult to troubleshoot. But maybe you can try by sending an agent a private message to ask if any changes have happened recently at PM's/Telus' end: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

@MariuszK2 SMS message sent by system is not guarantee to be able to send internationally. I understand you have been getting it for 2 years, but situation like this is likely there are system change on the sender side. For international text, only those send by actually users are more guarantee.. but system generated text are really hit and miss. I suggest you contact the bank and use other mean of authentication, like actually calls or email or Authenticator app.

You can also contact PM to confirm, but very likely the text is not even reaching PM system and hence there likely nothing PM can help.

@MariuszK2To help brainstorm other options, I want to point out that there are online phone services that will give you a Polish phone number to use exclusively, and you will also be able to receive SMS on that number. It may be a better option than trying to receive SMS on your Canadian number from Poland.

@0PX9O4 has a good point about getting a Polish number from online phone services. However, please check before you join. For example, Fongo will give out Canadian phone numbers but it won't be able to receive most the short codes or system generated text. So, make sure you confirm you can receive the text from your Polish bank before you choose the service.

Yes but the larger issue in my experience is not whether the VoIP service will allow text messages from short codes, but whether the bank will allow the sending of verification texts to a VoIP number.

So yes, the VoIP option may or may not work for you.

@0PX9O4 Most the time, bank does not treat VoIP number differently. They use short code to send the authentication code and it is an issue whether the VoIP provider can receive the short code.

@MariuszK2 - So you used to receive them, but no you are not.

Can you check if you accidentally blocked that contact/short code in your contacts/messages app?

Maybe try putting your SIM card into another compatible Public Mobile phone and see if you receive the message this way.
