Can you reply to a text message from a business?
It depends on what type of SMS system or number they’re using. If the sender ID is a name, instead of a phone number, you won’t be able to reply. Many companies do support replies by using an SMS Messenger app. It’s a great way to be available on the channel their customers prefer.
