Mass Texting and Carriers

[keystone_56]

Does anyone know if carriers can block mass text messages? I use the app Group Text to message my employees. I own a national construction company and we send out mass texts to approximately 500 people per week, on occasion more. The Group Text app sends out individual messages to each person in the designated group. For instance most of our groups have up to 100 members. The app will fire out 100 individual messages over about a 2 minute span.

My question is do some carriers block mass texts like this? Some of my employees are saying the texts are not coming in. It seems to only affect AT&T customers from what I can tell. The individuals in quest got SMS and MMS under normal circumstances. The number used for this mass/rapid fire texting is a VZW number. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would not be surprised if your mass texts were getting flagged as spam and being dropped.

AC now has an ATT rep monitoring the ATT forum if you want to specifically ask about ATT policies.

I have not noticed that forum before. I'll try to find it. Thanks
