Re: I Want to Block Incoming Texts
Scott60 wrote: My “free” text message allotment to my T-Mobile pay as you go number have been used up by unwanted incoming spam messages. I want to turn off text messages on my iPhone so I do not incur additional fees. My iPhone is connected to an iCloud account, that also has another number on a different account - so I can’t tell which messages arebeing sent to my T-Mobile number vs. the other number. This guideis about blocking messages, not avoiding overage fees. How can I turn off incoming texts and avoid overage fees thatare being caused by unwanted spam?Maxim Time Clock -Mobile may have specific procedures or tools to help block spam messages or manage your account settings to prevent overage charges. Consider using third-party apps from the App Store that specialize in blocking spam messages. If your iCloud account is causing confusion between numbers, you may need to adjust your iCloud settings or iCloud-linked devices to ensure messages are correctly identified.31Views0likes0CommentsRe: Need help buying an Esim

Many forms I am filling (utilities, electricity, etc) are requesting a US number (tried putting my international num, but the form rejects it). I tried to buy an prepaid esim from t-mobile, but when checking out they require a phone number (which I do not have), and a residential address (which is currently outside of the US). I have a USapartment contract that starts in April, so it’s not valid yet…Time and attendance management Any idea on how I can proceed? It seems you're encountering issues purchasing a prepaid eSIM from T-Mobile due to the requirement for a US phone number and residential address. Here are a few steps you might consider to proceed. Reach out directly to T-Mobile's customer support via phone or online chat. Explain your situation and see if they can offer any alternative solutions or exceptions, especially considering your upcoming US apartment contract. Check if other mobile providers in the US offer eSIMs with different purchasing requirements. Some providers may have more flexible policies regarding international addresses. Consider obtaining a temporary US-based virtual phone number from online services that offer such numbers. This could potentially satisfy the requirement during the checkout process. If possible, wait until your US apartment contract starts in April. Once you have a valid US address, you may be able to complete the purchase without issues. As an alternative, you could purchase a traditional SIM card locally upon arrival in the US, which might have less stringent requirements compared to eSIM purchases.4Views0likes0Comments
