SMS Deliverability Issues (Day 2)
Incident Report for DeansList
Resolved
After three full school days of monitoring without additional messages being flagged as SPAM we can confirm this issue is resolved. We have also worked with our carrier to understand the root cause of the false identification and have instituted changes to prevent this from happening in the future. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this service disruption.
