Yahoo Mobile Alerts Not Working?

Question

Anyone know what is going with the Alerts engine, they stopped over a month ago and I can no longer add a device, I get the confirmation code but when I enter it, it takes me back to step 2 asking me to add my 10 digit mobile number, then it routes back, basically a giant loop. Trying to add my address as an e-mail based device does not work at all. Anyone have any idea what's up?

Answer 1

Same here, I'm on tmobile.  I think if you can if you are on another network i.e. cingular. etc.., it will work.  I tried it using different networks and it works.  By selecting tmobile, I get that "loop" like you.  Unfortunately, you can't trick the system into believing that your 10 digit number belongs to a different network.  Still waiting on Yahoo to address this issue.

Answer 2

It happen to us sometimes, we can't do anything with that, just wait until Yahoo work on it.

Good luck!
