I learned today that T Mobile only allows one phone on an account to receive short code verification texts. My wife and I are on a family plan with my son. All of us work so this is quite inconvenient. Do other carriers limit access to short code verification texts? We would like to switch to another carrier. Otherwise, we will each have to get our own plan and our expense will increase. Thank you!

Me and my wife both get short code text.

Are you both on the same plan at TMobile or do you guys have separate plans?

Same 55+ plan. No issues and we've been with TMobile for 20 years.

each line must request it be turned on..so no this is not a limitation to one line only on an account..would be kind of stupid to only allow one person on a account for example of 4 lines dont you think? only one person can receive a short code text verification and the rest just gotta eat dirt?
