Apartment gate code is not working

I live in a gated apartment where we provide our phone numbers and they will give us back a 3-digit code. This code should allow guests to key in the 3-digit code from the gate's keypad, and a call will be redirected to our phone, we then should press 9 to open the gate. 

 

When I tested it, the gate responds that ‘the call could not be completed as dialed.’ 

The manager at my complex has deleted and re-entered me into the system 3 times and that has not worked. They suggest that this could be a carrier issue.

 

Did anyone else had this issue and got it resolved?

Hello @dtmccain we certainly understand your concerns with your apartment gate code not operating properly when calling your device.

 

Please let us know if other callers are able to reach out to you and if this is a concern with multiple numbers? This information will better determine if this is an carrier concern or not. (If not, then this will have to be resolved and troubleshooted through your apartment complex and the system that they're using to process your number.)

 

If you have any further concerns, please feel free to reach back out to the community!

 

Thank you.

Other callers are able to reach out to me with no problem. This is the only number I am having issues with.

Hi @dtmccain! Let's address why you are unable to receive call from your apartment complex gate system!

 

Please check your blocked phone calls on your phone app or blocked text messages. We also recommend checking your AT&T Mobile Security App or Call Protect app for calls that may be blocked and remove from list

 

Lastly, some wireless plans may have mobile security and call protect features. Learn how to Opt out online for fraud call blocking and spam alerts or downgrade the Mobile Security apps. 

 

We hope this is helpful! Thank you for reaching out to the community!

Thank you for reaching back out to us @dtmccain!

 

Please check out our helpful Troubleshoot And Resolve Tool to help fix your apartment phone call concern, go to Fix An Issue > Connection> Phone Calls and make sure to enter the correct device at Change Device.

 

We also recommend reaching out to your apartment complex if we are still unable to help fix your apartment phone call concern, as it could be an error on their end.

 

Thank you,
