Here's another example I just tried. Facebook says text "fb" to 32665 to get an activation code for registering my phone to my Facebook account. I just tried to message that number, and sending failed. I don't really receive texts often, but I haven't received any lately. Do you suppose there's something wrong with my speakout account? I was able to send a text to my own number, but that's been the only text message I've sent or received in awhile.

Thanks for reading, everyone.

Edit: Seems I'm trying to send/receive from short codes, which are not supported. I assume that's why I cannot receive confirmation codes from Gmail, facebook, or epost. Not too impressed, but mostly because I didn't understand what was going on and wasted a lot of time trying to figure it out, This lack of functionality isn't that critical to me, though it would have been nice to have.

I was wondering if I'm the only one to have trouble receiving text messages from specific companies. For example, I tried to sign up for text message alerts from my bank which uses epost notifications. They were supposed to send a text with some kind of confirmation information, but I received nothing after several attempts.

Another instance was with icoke.ca. They kept bugging me to register my mobile number, so when I finally attempted to, it said my mobile number was not supported. How come? Who knows?

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate (i897), locked to the Rogers network. Thanks in advance.
