THThis company “fired” us after many… This company “fired” us after many years of partnership, simply because they didn’t like that we were getting too many incoming calls on our phone number that we registered with them. This sudden stop of service caused thousands of dollars in damages (since we used other services from them).

GBVery Reliable Twilio Alternative We are a fast growing startup with customers around the globe and we needed a reliable way to reach our customers. We initially started with Twilio, but then later added Plivo as a backup. Now we only use Plivo for all our communication. I am now trying to have my team move to PHLO which will reduce our dev times even more. FYI: Our account also got blocked initially as some of the other reviews mention here, but their support team was great and they helped us set back up seamlessly.

ESBe wary of their bait and switch… Be wary of their bait and switch tactics. When you create your account you will see many available phone numbers to purchase. Upon making a payment, thousands of them disappear. I opened 2 accounts, on my paid account I see no availability, on my unpaid account I see many available numbers for the exact same query.

GBPOS service and arbitrary decisions. I started as a Plivo customer in 2016. I have had an active though dormant account for the last two years and apparently something has changed since then, as when I kicked up another PBX system and tried to fund my account, I got an email saying my account was reviewed and I was declined any continuing services. No reason why, though the message made sure to tell me that it could not be appealed. What a waste of time and POS process. After seeing all of the similar reviews, it is apparent some dumb a** in management has made another poor decision... those business degrees are not worth the paper they are written on. Hey Plivo investors, fire your management, they are wasting your money.

CASame issue Same issue. We are about to go live with our website but got a message from Plivo: Our systems have flagged your account, due to which we are unable to provide you access to our services. I wasted a day to use Plivo API just to learn that I can't use this in our live environments. Plivo, please put this onto your website that you are selective in offering this service and don't provide much explanation about flagging the accounts.
