# Invalid Character error when creating jamb Profile 2027/2028

Invalid Character error when creating jamb Profile 2027/2028: in one of my recent articles, I explained how to create Jamb profile using sms method without issues.

Check: [2027 JAMB UTME Questions and Answers Study Guide Solutions](/jamb-questions-and-answers/)

In the long run, I discovered that so many candidates have been facing one or two challenges including invalid character when sending sms with their phone.

One of the issues you may encounter while creating your Jamb profile through text messages is **sms sending failure**. I have already explained how to solve the issue of sms sending failure while creating jamb profile. You may want to click here to see the article.

 

## Solution to Invalid Character error when creating jamb Profile 2027/2028

In this article, I shall quickly address another challenge you would encounter while creating your Jamb 2027 profile. This is the issue of **Invalid Character Found in the name supplied.**

Someone just sent me this text, “After I sent my name to 55019, I got this message from jamb *invalid character found in the name submitted*”

See [How To Register for Jamb 2027/2028 Guidelines & Steps to Apply](/register-for-jamb-steps/)

Just like the subject of the sms implies, invalid characters are messages formats not approved or acceptable by jamb.

According to Jamb, there should be **spacing **between your first name, middle name and surname. If you wrote all your names together (without spacing) it would not be accepted.

Invalid character could also be as a result of you putting **numerical** **values** in your name. Numbers are not part of names; names are purely alphabets.

Funny enough, some persons would send names like Mary419 and John15me to jamb 😯 . This is not acceptable. Just follow the correct sms format.
