SMS notifications have stopped working.

[Marcin65]

Hello dear hosts, administrators and moderators of the forum. When I have a problem and can't get help from cs , I ask a question here. I usually get more attention and support from users of this forum. Our collective knowledge through experience is a power that should be used by the AirBnB platform to help each other. @Joan2709 , @Helen3 , @Joelle43 , @Shelley159 

Sorry for the long introduction, now to the point. As in the title: SMS notifications are not working for me. All SMS notification settings were not changed. I received the last SMS notification on 03.03.2025. I had such situations a few times before, it seems to me that after AirBnB application updates. Then after updating on my mobile device + logging out / logging in the problem disappeared, unfortunately now it doesn't. The support department is working on ....
Has anyone had a similar problem, or can someone help me? 

I found a similar topic, unfortunately without a solution.

I get about half of the SMS notifications about incoming messages. There is no rule about which message notifications come: whether from guests, from co-host, from CS. It's becoming more and more difficult for me to control my emotions after talking to another staff member. I sent another screenshot with an image of enabled PUSH notifications, about which another person from CS said that they have no effect on SMS.

My third ticket was closed by CS.

The entire support team is working to fix this issue. Message notifications are coming in selectively. I can't work properly. I have not received any information about when this issue will be resolved.

Hello @Marcin65 

I've had two tickets closed too with the promise that I would get an email within 24/48 hours from an engineer - that was 5 days ago!

Received zero messages via SMS from my recent guest - only emails.  I've posted on the French CC asking if others have the same problem as me but not much reaction so far - 1 no problem and another who has the same problem.  

How long before someone takes our issue seriously??  Imagine if we acted as slowly as CS as hosts?  We'd get booted off the platform and no way to appeal!

Hi @Joelle43  . I think there are two options:
1. AirBnB is testing us to see how much SMS notifications are used and needed for which they have to pay mobile network operators
2. This notification inconvenience affects a small percentage of users and there is no need to worry about it too much.

Perhaps our Forum Administrators can gather more information about what is causing this problem? @Bhumika @Elisa @Rebecca  @Lisa  @Quincy  We will be grateful 🙏

I'm tired of this topic. Unfortunately nothing has changed. Notifications come randomly, sometimes there are and sometimes there are none about messages from the same guests. I didn't get any help from CS, I have no idea what to do with it. My three reports have been closed. I can't properly maintain contact with my guests. 

The sight of moving icons in the app just irritates me, basic functions don't work, so it's probably more important to fix them.

Are there any other people who do not receive SMS notifications? or only you, @Joelle43 ?
