      @krisleslie Yeah Ive got family in Kentucky that has to use windstream and they are very shady.

      They are the absolute worst.

        How many people are using Twilio? They are getting a lot more attention recently.

        Moved all my trunks to Twilio.
        Love the whole console & UI layout.

        Also, use Authy (another one of their products)

          The one downside with Twilio is support.
          Free support is via email, unless you want to pay (per month) & it ain't cheap.

            Didn't realize that that was one of theirs.

              How not cheap is it?

                Looks like they have some new tiers available:
                https://www.twilio.com/support-plans
                Min. is $250/mo.

                  $250/month is less than two hours of my time in a month. so think about it that way.

                  Will depend on what qualifies in that $250 as support.

                    Looks like 250 get you somewhere between 3 to 9 hours of email response time, no phone calls.

                      I've never had a problem with their free, E-mail support. I usually got responses within 24 hours.

                        Same experience as you, just thought it needed to be mentioned.

                          @fateknollogee Agreed. Always good to layout what is available, let the people make a choice as to what is right for their situation.
