Get A Text Message Whenever A Deal Is Posted
————————————————-
Late last week for whatever reason Twitter seems to have disabled text alerts for many people who were getting a text message whenever a new deal was posted.
I’m aware of this because several hundred of you have been emailing me either telling me of that fact or asking that I turn it back on for their Twitter handle.
There’s nothing I can do on my end, but all you need to do is go through the steps in this post to re-enable text alerts. Once you do that you should be good to go.

Yup I can confirm my Twitter got turned off
Never stopped on mine, although I never got the Guy Fieri knife set deal until you sent out the update via Twitter.
@Booky:
And did you try turning it back on?
@AA:
That deal was tweeted out when it was live back in February.
I’m curious if it was just people that never use twitter or not.
@Dan:
Gotcha.
@Tim: Mine wasn’t turned off and I valmost never use twitter.
@Tim: I use twitter and it was still shut off. I set it back up again.
My text alerts were turned off but I still received the twitter app notifications.
@whYME: is “valmost” from harry potter or star trek ?
@Shlomo: that was so brave of you !!
Sorry dan, but your instruction are very complicating. Its much easyer to write a text message to 40404 follow @dansdeals. Whenever you full off like on page plus every month when replenshing… you text that again and your following again.
Mine got shut off today as well š
Twitter was overwhelmed last week by a major event that overloaded the system
The made mine off 2 times already
Perhaps this is targeted at orthodox jews in collaboration with chase as retaliation for the orthos taking to twitter to complain about the orthodox jew purge from chase…
Sounds far fetched? Probably. But remember that is what they want you to think. or do they? -JD cc -LL
I thought you were too quiet. I turned the texts back on a few days ago.
Thanks! Worked for me!
I started from scratch after logging off completely
mine was shut off last week
we turned it back on earlier this week
doing this will make your account very insecure
@samuel:
Except that you don’t get all the texts that way.
@Saul G:
How so?
It was a one time thing, no ones being targeted. There was a picture going viral that was retweeted so many times that the twitter system crashed
