A week ago today my Twitter account was suspended "for suspicious activity" -- specific...

After a week of being locked out of Twitter and receiving no help, I finally googled to try to figure out the problem. I found out that some mobile carriers don't allow short code texts without specifically setting your account up to receive them. Unfortunately, Verizon is one of those carriers (I never had this problem before because I had previously been with AT&T).**Here's what I found from one person who had dealt with this (on a Verizon chat line):**“Just found the answer. You need to send a text with the word ON to twitter. In the US the short code to send that text to is *****.*Once that is sent your account will start working again.”**So I texted GO to *****, and immediately got a response from Twitter. Apparently they had been sending me authorization codes about ** or so times over the past week (every time I requested one) – but Verizon wasn’t letting them get through to me. But once I did the above, everything opened up, I plugged in the authorization code, and I was back online with Twitter. **Very relieved – though frustrated with both Twitter and Verizon for allowing such a simple problem to hang me up for so long (and, apparently, many others who have dealt with the same thing – both with Verizon, and other mobile carriers).**Hope my hard-learned lesson can help others!
