Here is the list of short codes supported by Public mobile.  Not sure if it is updated to the most recent ones though.

Hello @Alexsettee ,

Are you area code 672, by any chance?

 

....I ask, because that "newer" area code has been posted to having issues in the past.

uber (or other companies) may need their databases updated. If you do have 672, hopefully all the kinks get worked out soon!

 

But if this bothers you too much, request to change your phone  number in your SELF SERVE account under "MyProfile":

Under "My Profile" in Self Serve

You can change it every 30 days, if you so desire.

Public Mobile wouldn't be blocking these.  Are you receiving all other text messages? I receive verification codes on my phone for other services. I've also heard about when people port a number in that, receiving text messages from such shortcodes might possible be blocked for the about the first 48 hours.
