Receiving messages from short-codes on DIDs

We have several of our origination vendors that now offer SMS on our DIDs. Unfortunately, none of our vendors can receive messages from short codes. I also checked Twilio and a couple other folks that specialize in SMS and their FAQ's say they can't do it either. Is there anybody out there that offers the ability to receive messages from short codes on their DIDs? -Evan

When I left the SMS industry 5 years ago, short codes used to have to be provisioned and negotiated by every network the short code owner wanted to reach. So most short code owners just have their SMS aggregators only go after the mobile networks. Google Voice probably influenced Bandwidth to be targeted. ~Jared On Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 12:13 PM, Peter Beckman <beckman at angryox.com> wrote:
