Circle passcode not received via text

I did the basic set up on the Circle app on my Samsung S8 phone and every started out great.  When I came back to the app a few days later, I've been shut out.  The app asks me for an admin passcode.  As my phone is the admin device, the app offers to send me a text with the passcode.  It never arrives.  I've tried restarting the router, force stopping the app and deleting and reinstalling the app.  Nothing changed.  Still no text with a passcode.  Nighthawk RAX75

      Im unable to  finish connecting my Circle app.  I just got a new phone and it signed me out.  I am the administrator and do not receive the passcode upon request.

       

      Thanks.
