[quote=DazedandConfused;4462445]Twilio is a platform primarily for developers to create voice and sms applications. The provide local phone numbers that are sms enabled and toll-free numbers that do not support sms. They provide the platform and developers like myself create applications that use their system as the back end.

| Twilio currently has international sms in beta. I haven't see a date on when they think it will come out of beta so I don't know how to answer that directly. There are some unkowns with international sms. Twilio does state that they are trying to keep it at the same price across the board - just $0.01 per message.

Chad, I don't receive the stop message back when I unsubscribe from a list. I've tried a few times and no confirm stop message. The number is removed from the list however.

If I have a Singapore client with 1000 Singapore customers. The client will have to get US phone number from Twilio, right? The rate for the client to call/sms the 1000 customers are as described in the 'international pricing' section. But if the Singapore customers text say 'Pizza' to the US phone number registered from Twilio: 1. The rate must be very high due to international sms/call. How can i know the rate for the Singapore customers to sms/call the US phone number? The 'optin' rate will be low due to this high pricing. 2. Does the Singaporean client needs to pay for any receiving sms/call? Correct me if i am wrong but I saw from Twilio, users need to pay to receive call/sms? Thanks. | |

It is too bad for Canadian IMs look what twilio says: International FAQ | Twilio Cloud Communications - Cached Email help@twilio.com to enable. Here are our international rates. ... Canadian Twilio numbers cannot send or receive SMS. Twilio does not offer phone . |

Chad, I was gone all day and when I got home and started going through my emails and saw this being promoted, I jumped on it right away. And even though I paid over twice the starting price for it, I would have paid much more and am so glad to have it. Awesome, simply awesome! Terry |

| Are you texting "STOP KEYWORD"? You need to send the word "stop" followed by the keyword of the list you want to unsubscribe from in order to get the reply from the list, assuming that the stop message was entered.

Hi Chad... Great idea! Let me know when you have a version that works (for my local clients) here in Australia. It seems that Twilio has US and Canadian numbers (and these will message to the world). However, can't see Aussie numbers. Pity, Great idea. |

webmustang, your comments above are over the top, insulting to people here that are merely trying to determine if this product can in some way be made to work for them and self-gratifying. What you may regard as a dumb comment or question, is usually a valid one to the prospect. An internet marketer avoids firing off at people when they ask questions. And, labeling himself as an "expert". For all Chad's faults, he has always been very civil and polite to questions and comments. You could learn from him. And, yes, I did buy this product. Alton |

Chad, First of all, I wish I'd gotten in here earlier! But- this thing has kept me busy. Two of my relatives, and two of their friends wanted me to set them up. I did. It worked beautifully. They loved it. They paid. I loved it. My own isn't even set up yet. And I might not ever get to, either. Go get it! |

With all due respect, I am on your mailing list and I am from the UK. I purchased this product from YOUR link yesterday and I find your comments to be derogatory to International buyers. Might you consider in future that you actually state in your emails to your list (made of International folk) that this product is for US Offline only, that would save us a ton of time, better still, not 'pollute' our email with products and links that are of no use to us. Cheers Aqui. | |

| Aqui, I am from Romania, but I didn't have the feeling that Jerome's comments are derogatory to International buyers. He was targeting only the lazy international readers who didn't respect seller's time, asking the same question that received an answer for so many times. On the other hand, for Chad or Jerome: I have read 90% of the posts here and I still don't know if buying this plugin I can use it for flipping sites. One member wrote something about this, but I want to have the answer from you. Thank you. Quote:

I have my own Text Messaging Software www.YadaText.com but this just made my program even better. This is a dead simple way to make it easier for people to sign up for your list or to subscribe to your text notification list. I will simply use the twilio program as an option for signing people up and then transfer their numbers into my own program lists and avoid the per text charge entirely. Thanks Chad. I've been trying to figure this last piece of the puzzle for YadaText and this is it. Now I can use both web forms and cell phone options. Love it.

You might have clients in the US, even if you are in UK. I have clients in other countries, why couldn't you?
Come on guys, after a while it gets REALLY frustrating, when the first thing on Sunday morning we see is some asking the same question AGAIN and AGAIN. I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but realize that your responsibility when you buy any WSO, any thing as a matter of fact, is: #1 read the sales letter #2 think #3 make a decision #4 live with it or refund it regards Jerome 007 Quote:

Bought last night and was blown away when I tested the voice to text functionality! Received the text message not even 1 sec after listening to your short VM message. Didn't read through every post yet, so don't know if you've addressed the following yet: 1) Being that this is after all our "clients" list, that we will be managing [or setting up for them to manage]...having an "automatic" list backup [or export or download] feature would be a fantastic selling point. As you said already, We'd need to be able to restore or import the list/ database. IMHO I think this would be one of the first updates to protect our clients in the event of a server crash, etc. 2) If you can't get this update done in the near future...perhaps you can make a video to show how to add multiples into the backend db, as well as how to backup/ save the db to our HDD after we've built a list? The db's [phone #'s] are stored with twilio, correct? 3) I noticed in my local area code there are only 30 numbers displayed...if 3 or 4 of us run with this and use up the #'s [however unlikely] does twilio buy more? ... Or? 4) What updates will be coming in the next few weeks or so? Thank for this amazing plugin and for answering my Q's! | |

When you set up and fund your account with Twilio, I'm assuming this is how text messages and the monthly billing for the telephone line are paid- correct?

You can easily add funds [at the push of a button] at any time, once you sign up. And twilio also gives you the option to automatically fund your account once it falls below a certain balance. Hope that helps. Scott | |

I do not have an issue with this product, I bought it before any comment was made on this thread about whether it would work outside the US or not (and it is an awesome product) my issue was with your comments on post #232, some of which you have removed now and apologized for.. Whilst I may understand your frustration with repeated questions from warriors 'will it work in my country' you have to understand some people here are indeed new, foreign, pushed for time (to read 5 pages of a thread) and yes dare I say even lazy, ... welcome to the real world.. sometimes patience/tolerance can go a long way with a valued subscriber. Peace Out. Aqui | |
