Decide whether the goal is a question, report or alert
The Town of Appomattox TextMyGov page says people can text the town's published number for information and to report certain issues. It separately gives an opt-in keyword for receiving town alerts.
Sending a question or report does not necessarily enroll the sender in every alert, and alert enrollment is not a service-request receipt. Follow the prompts and preserve the response that identifies the actual action taken.
Protect private information and keep another safety channel
The town page notes that message and data rates may apply and describes STOP as the opt-out command. Review the current page before using a keyword because instructions can change.
Do not text passwords, payment credentials, protected health information or unrelated personal details. A subscription is not proof that every message will be accepted, received or read, and the text service does not replace 911 for immediate danger.
