Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for consumer contact are described. In some aspects, an example method may include receiving an indication to notify a consumer and identifying a text-capable contact number associated with the consumer. The example method may also include determining a disconnect date at which the text-capable contact number was disconnected and comparing the disconnect date with a notification date associated with receiving the indication to notify the consumer. Additionally, the example method may include determining whether to notify the consumer via the text-capable contact number based on the comparison of the disconnect date with the notification date. In some aspects, the example method may include identifying whether a primary contact number for which to notify the consumer is a text-capable phone number. In other aspects, the example method may include soliciting the consumer to obtain a substitute contact number that can be used as a text-capable contact number.
