Hi,
is anyone else having issues with the Send SMS to SMS List when using with the sms_twillio module when I input a name and telephone number and location to the list its fine but when I send messages out the location code is not used and +1 is used (american I think)

Is this a bug or something else?

SMS Lists - area location codes

Hi Fishboy,

+1 is often substituted by programs for the 0 in a phone number.
If you replace the 0 for the country code (eg, 0044 for UK) that might override it.
There's some more info on it on the link below, under the 'Formatting international mobile numbers' section.
Hope it helps.

Good luck!

twillio has a settings page where you configure the numbers (prefixes) your account is allowed to contact
by default it is set to US only, therefore it adds +1 whenever you use another prefix
check your account settings at twillio
