Could you have accidentally blocked that person?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

I've double checked that I don't have this person blocked. I am also able to receive phone calls from this number.

It's important to keep all communication lines open, KSUN50. Let's take a closer look into your messages. When did this start? Have you ever been able to receive text from this number before? What is the make and model of your phone?

I have been able to receive texts from this number. Started on Thursday, 08/24. I have a Google Pixel and use the Google Messaging App. I have since switched to the Verizon App to see if that worked. Still doesn't work.  This friend is able to send texts to others in my family, who are on the same account.  Currently, I am able to receive texts via the WeChat app.

That's a long time, KSUN50. Let's get more information. Was there any changes to the device prior to this issue such as a software update or new applications? How did you go about checking the blocked number (phone or My Verizon)?

To ensure this number isn't blocked, I went to the phone app, settings,

call blocking - and saw that I did not have any numbers listed. The number

that I cannot receive texts from is an Australia number. This problem

started when he recently landed in the US (August 24). As I previously

mentioned, we are able to place calls back and forth, and he is able to

send texts to my family, who are on the same Verizon account as me.
