Be 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.

I signed up I signed up, tried trial, upgraded. I integrated it with my custom made platform. After hassle with not receiving texts from international numbers to US numbers, I tried UK number. All worked well. In the meantime they sent some irrelevant questionaire. Since I didn't answered questionaire, yes you read correctly, they are forcing customers to answer some stupid questions like I have nothing else to do; they blocked my account totally. Well, what to say ... Good luck with you business when you treat customers like this

Current Twilio customer Current Twilio customer. Tried to sign up with Plivo to test their service, and possibly migrate to it but immediately denied. We run a 12-year-old company that has never (EVER) spammed a client with even a newsletter and we sometimes use SMS to communicate with customers that specifically request this method of communication during support requests/tickets only. "Based on the information you provided regarding your business and use case, we are unable to provide you with service at this time. Our internal team has made the thorough reassessment , and this decision is final." Great business model, Plivo.

Account on hold immediately I tried to sign up with Plivo for internal transactional sms messages. Litterally only want a service to provide real time updates via text message. My account was immediately put on hold. Waste of time even trying to sign up for this company

Stay far away from Plivo Stay far, far way. Plivo is nothing but a scam now. It's impossible to get a new account, and even existing accounts (I had one for five years) have been shut down without warning.
