NumberBarn’s numbers are classified as “wireline“. There is nothing NumberBarn can do to change this regulatory (FCC) classification.
Many businesses, financial institutions and social media platforms require verification of accounts through a users “wireless” number. They may not support sending notifications to a “wireline” number. You’ll want to check with that organization about their messaging to make sure that a number with NumberBarn can work for you.
We cannot guarantee that a text message authorization will arrive through your NumberBarn number.
