alt Hacker NewsHas anyone here used Telnyx? I tried to build a product against their API last year and 3 weeks after signing up they banned my account and made it impossible to get an answer as to why or re-enable it.

I've had a pretty good experience using it to send SMS. Any chance you didn't get a 10DLC or toll free verification and tried to send too many messages?
I believe Telnyx and Twilio nuked every small or personal accounts at some point because they couldn't risk those being used for spam or scams. There might have been some real risks for them, IDK.
But it is ironic that now Telnyx brand itself as an AI company but they couldn't detect that I am just calling some family once in a while and not involved in massive spam campaign.
The only one who kept me around was voip.ms but it literally doesn't work.
I am still looking for a decent VoIP provider to simply make calls.
I like it so far. Did you call phone support at the time and ask about it? I find it's easy enough to get in a call with a human.
I tried, but they used some 3rd party KYC platform whose country selection dropdown seemed to have every country except Finland (even Åland, a region of Finland, was there).
Support wasn't helpful.
Went with Twilio instead.
