> I have this problem because my main, personal number is actually a twilio number (as I built my own personal telco within twilio) and this means I cannot receive validation messages from shortcodes (like a bank)
Why does Twilio work for me for SMS 2FA? Is it because I m using an '07' number in the UK?
It's possible that your 2FA SMS messages are being sent to you FROM a normal phone number and not a shortcode ...
The problem is not that I can't do 2FA - that's just SMS messaging. The problem is, I can't receive messages from a shortcode, which is different than a normal phone number.
