A Customer is not receiving SMS notifications [Classic]

There can be a number of reasons why your Customer is not receiving SMS notifications. We recommend reviewing the following settings in your account to ensure Customers receive SMS notifications.

<script id="snippet-prepend">
$(function(){

  /*disable in widget*/
  if($('.w-documentation-article').length === 0){

     var ToC =
  "&lt;nav role='navigation' class='table-of-contents toc-top'><h4>In this article:" + "<ul>";
     var el,     title, link, header;
      //Define the heading levels you want to use in ascending order. Can add extra or remove unneeded.
     $(".hg-article-body h1, .hg-article-body h2, .hg-article-body h3, .hg-article-body h4").each(function() &#123;
              el = $(this);
              title = el.text();
                 if(title != '')&#123;
                anchorTitle = el.text().replace(/([~!@#$%^&*()_+=`&#123;&#125;\[\]\|\\:;'&lt;>,.\/\? ])+/g, '-').toLowerCase();
                link = "#" + anchorTitle;
                //Set all headers to a 0-nesting level.
                header = 'header-nesting-0';
                //Adjust header-nesting layers so that they point to the correct html tag. header-nesting-1 should match the second .hg-article-body h# listed above; header-nesting-2 should match the third, etc.
                if($(this).is('h2'))&#123;
                    header = 'header-nesting-1';
                &#125;else if($(this).is('h3'))&#123;
                    header = 'header-nesting-2'
                &#125;
                el.html('<a id="'+anchorTitle+'" class="toc-anchor">' + el.html());
                newLine =
      "<li class='"+header+"'>" +
        "<a class='article-anchor' href='" + link + "'>" +
          title +
        "" +
      "";


                ToC += newLine;
              &#125;
              &#125;);
     ToC +=
   "" +
  "";
    $("#snippet-prepend").before(ToC);
  &#125;
&#125;);
