The clock is ticking on Twilio Flex v1

Flex v1 reaches end-of-life on the 30th of June 2024 at which point critical security features, fixes and new functionality will no longer be available.

We’ve helped the likes of Age UK, AnyVan, Bennetts, CityLit, NRC, Oxfam, SRA, Sure Store, Terrys Fabrics and many others make the move, and have become well versed in the process.

“Unusually high call volumes”

A man shouting into a smartphone.
Don’t fall foul!

Organizations that are consistently playing, “sorry, we are experiencing unusually high call volumes” are “lying” says Martin Lewis of MoneySavingExpert.com (a famous British consumer interest website), who warns that he’s coming for them.

Lewis is asking people to report such instances - within 24 hours he’d already had thousands of submissions.

Make sure you don’t fall foul of this lazy, but all too common, practice!


Thanks for reading. Stay tuned for more insights and best practices.
