Re: Not receiving OTP

Same issue here. Ported my number from O2 to Sky yesterday. Trying to sign into iMessage on my iPhone, but I'm not receiving my 2-factor authentication (OTP) messages from Apple, as either Text or the alternative Phone Call. I've also had at least one person tell me that they were unable to call me on my number. 

 

This seems to be a longstanding problem that affects the majority of authentication services. This is an essential requirement of a mobile phone! I wonder whether Ofcom are aware? 

 

I was on the phone to Sky, they told me to update the network settings while I was on the call. The call abruptly ended and I'm waiting for a call back. I'll hold my breath. Having read the above thread I think this is a customer service delaying tactic.

It is an issue that pops up fairly regularly. All you can do is call Sky and report it and inform of the company you can't receive the messages from.

OTP Premium Bonds - Not receiving

After many calls with the Premium Bond people and some testing, my Sky mobile will not recieve OTP from NSI...

 

I have noted that this has happened to other people. Is this a fixable issue?

Thank you for getting involved with Sky Community Forum to share this experience you are having with OTP SMS's.

 

I've reached out to the relevant team to see if this is something that can be investigated.

This thread will get updated as and when we have more information to share.

 

I'm marking this post as the current answer just so it's pushed to the top for easy finding 🙂

Hi all,

 

This has been checked through back office teams and at this time we cannot see any indication of a wider issue with OTPs.  Though we do appreciate there is a number of users showing this issue.

 

Moving forward, our advice at this time is that you contact the relevant business you are not receiving OTPs from in order to have this investigated further from their end. 

 

If there is any additional information that might be helpful for other users based off the back of you having this conversation with the relevant company then please do reach back out on to this thread here to share 🙂

 

I am marking this as the best answer for this current time so it's easily findable for other users.

 

Thanks,

Daniel
