Twitter would actively block one time numbers. This seems like a lie.

I tried to use onoff numbers with Twitter on multiple occasions but failed to receive anything. They are being very misleading here.

-- not only do they block one time numbers - google voice numbers - etc - they claim you CAN sign up with just an email account - let you - and then 30 minutes later automatically lock your account and tell you the only way to verify it is with a number - I was setting up an account a week ago for a client and I eventually gave up - because I was sick of being lied to by their UI --

Some people claim this is the situation with the new Twitter onion-service. Sad.
