Over the last 7 days, Twilio has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~75 ms. According to Twilio's official status page, the most recent outage began 2026-08-05 00:59 UTC and lasted 3h 43m (severity: degraded). It was reported as "SMS Delivery Delays and Failures from Twilio to C+W Sure United Kingdom".
Twilio provides programmable SMS, voice, and verification APIs used for messaging and one-time passcodes worldwide. Its incidents are usually confined to one channel or carrier route, so SMS delivery to one country slows while voice and the API are unaffected, and the visible effect is users not receiving login codes.

What to do if Twilio is down for just you
- Check whether delivery is delayed rather than failed, since messages are queued and usually arrive once a backlog clears.
- Test a second channel or recipient domain, because incidents are often limited to one carrier, region, or mailbox provider.
- Confirm you have not hit a rate or spend limit, which returns the same errors as an outage.
- Verify your webhook endpoint is still responding, as a receiving failure on your side mimics a provider problem.
