Subject: I Switched From Android to iPhone. I'm Not Going Back
By Abrar Al-Heeti
After 10 long years of loving Android, I've caved.
After months of going back and forth I went to my local Verizon store
and ordered an iPhone 14 Pro. It may sound like I'm being overly
dramatic, but the move signaled a big shift for me.
I've always prided myself on not buying into the Apple hype. Despite
years of pestering from friends to switch to an iPhone, I pushed back,
maintaining that I liked being different from the masses. Everyone
around me has an iPhone. It felt good to defy the norm. And so for
years, I stuck with my Samsung Galaxy devices, which I still believe
are incredible phones.

Subject: Not Receiving Texts from Some But Not Others
Over the last couple of weeks, I have been noticing some strange
things about receiving texts.
I use Callcentric. They provide texting service as an optional
add on to your phone service.
A few days ago, I got an email from our local recorder's office.
They had tried to send me a confirmation that my ballot had been
counted. But they had determined that my number was not in service.
They informed me that they had dropped my number from their records
for that reason. When I asked why, they said they had received
notification that my number had been taken out of service. They did
reinstate my number. They also sent me a test text message from their
system. But, I did not receive it. I did receive one text from them
acknowledging that my ballot had been counted [after the primary a few
months ago].
I contacted Callcentric. They couldn't shed any light on why.
They don't seem to be interested enough to look into it further.
Additionally, I don't seem to be receiving texts on several of my
accounts that require two factor authentication. Just this morning, I
encountered this when I attempted to log into my Walmart account.
Never got the verification texts. So I added one more to that list.
I am firmly convinced that something is going on that is beyond
my immediate control.
I am receiving texts from my friends and some business people.
FYI, I got that number from Magic Jack about seven or eight years
ago. I ported it over to Callcentric when I established service with
them.
I am looking for any suggestions or feedback that anyone can
provide that may assist in resolving this situation.
Regards, and thanks in advance.
