Mozillion and OTP texts
I am considering moving to Mozillion because of the EE backbone. I'm aware that some users on Spusu (also an EE MVNO) have a problem receiving OTP codes, especially it seems, if they are using an eSIM. Can anyone on Mozillion comment on whether OTP's are working OK for them? Thanks.
