- **STOP** - If a text message recipient wishes to opt out, they can send ‘STOP’ to the toll-free number. The carrier sends the following default response for STOP: *"NETWORK MSG: You replied with the word "stop", which blocks all texts sent from this number. Text back "unstop" to receive messages again."*
6464
- **START/UNSTOP** - If the recipient wishes to resubscribe to text messages from a toll-free number, they can send ‘START’ or ‘UNSTOP’ to the toll-free number.

Alphanumeric sender ID is not capable of receiving inbound messages or STOP messages. Azure Communication Services does not enforce or manage opt out lists for alphanumeric sender ID. You must provide customers with instructions to opt out using other channels such as, calling support, providing an opt out link in the message, or emailing support. See [messaging policy guidelines](./messaging-policy.md#how-we-handle-opt-out-requests-for-sms) for further details.
