I'm curious - if I get a number from bandwidth, is it an actual mobile number that can receive SMS from shortcodes ?

That is one downside of twilio - they cannot provide a true mobile number and so therefore you cannot get 2FA and other texts that come from shortcode numbers ...

Nope. Tried it. It failed SMS verification.
