I unexpectedly got unsubscribed from a bunch of SMS notification services all at once



Yesterday (July 13) i suddenly got about 10 txt messages from various companies - my bank, amazon, UPS etc all telling me I had successfully unsubscribed from their sms notifications. These all came at the same time all from different short numbers.

I never asked to stop receiving notifications from any of them.

There's only two events that happened recently in regards to my phone.

1. I just signed up with t-mobile a week or two ago - and then ported my number over from sprint a few days ago.

2. about an hour or two before getting the txt messages, i changed my txt message program from the default samsung app to google messages.

While i was testing out t-mobile but hadn't yet ported my sprint number, i had no service since my sprint phone was broken.

Anyone have any ideas with any of that information why I would have suddenly gotten all those unsubscribe notices from all those different companies all at once?
