[UPDATE] METROCLOUD TEXT NOTIFICATIONS
Per the above communication from our Verizon representative, email to text service has been discontinued by Verizon. This decision was decided to better protect users from spam messages, email spoofing and phishing. We apologize for the inconvenience.
It appears that they are letting the service linger without support or any guarantee of service thus the recent issues.
MetroCloud users that use Verizon email to text service for notifications are advised to:
– Replace @vtext.com or @vzwpix.com notification recipients with alternative email address
AND/OR
– Use voice calling / SMS feature*
*Users that currently do not have voice / SMS capabilities will have to upgrade their plans in order to receive feature.
If you have any questions, please contact MetroCloud support at support@metrocloud.us or via phone at 877-89MTCLOUD (877-896-8256).
Thank you,
