- Check your phone number format. You must include '+' and the country code as well as the full phone number (no parentheses of hyphens)
- If using a trial Twilio account, check that the 'To' number is included in your Verified Caller IDs.
- Please note: Depending on your country, you may not be enabled to receive Twilio verification codes. If you do not receive a verification code for your number, please contact Twilio support in order to verify your number manually.
That's It !
