Note: We identified an issue with sending video texts in Follow Up Boss to AT&T phone numbers. AT&T is filtering these text messages out as spam (error 30007) and not delivering them to recipients. Approximately 5% of video texts are impacted. We are actively investigating a fix as of March 2, 2022. If you have any questions, please email support@followupboss.com.
