BullCity11, 

 

We know how important it is for your billing to be correct. When you see all nines in the number for a call or text history, this is because the number could not be captured. It is possible that it was a shortcode, or a text from a longer string of numbers than is captured in a 10-digit mobile number. Sometimes automated text messages come from longer numbers because they are being sent through a computer, rather than a phone. Does that make sense?

This is a great question Shaneb62. Let me explain the number description of 999-999-9999. I would be a bit confused as well.
Any unavailable" appears when the telephone number for an unbilled incoming call cannot be captured.
Also, "999-999-9999" appears in My Verizon when the telephone number for an unbilled incoming call cannot be captured.

 

Does this provide clarity?

No, it doesnt since the 999-999-9999 number on my bill is via text.  A text is sent from 000-000-0000 and the response is 999-999-9999.

I know how concerning it can be to receive a text message from an unfamiliar number. What was the content of this message? Did you reply back to the sender?

I am having the same issue. For some reason a few of the sent not received text messages show up as 999-999-9999 on the Verizon text log. Can you please explain what this means. Thanks
