I am following the Node.js Twillio tutorial and everything works well until the last part : calling from my browser.
My number has a +371 prefix, and I am trying to call another +371 number, so (in my mind) it should be treated as a local call, but I get the error : 13227 - Dial: No International Authorization
My twillio number is configure to use a twiml app and this url : http://twimlets.com/forward?PhoneNumber=%2B371XXXXXX while placing a voice call. The rest of the code is exactly the same as the tutorial, and I can receive calls in the browser.
Here's the request I see in the logs :
<Dial action="/forward?Dial=true" timeout="20" callerId="+371XXXXXXXX">+371YYYYYYYY</Dial>
The response to this is the warning 13227 and
<Response>
<Hangup/>
</Response>
So my question is : Why is this call considered international and how do I make a local call?
Twilio Evangelist here.
This is indeed a very good question. It sounds like your Twilio account has been setup localised in a country other than in Latvia (+371). Typically, when you attempt to buy a new Twilio number it will offer a number in your country, but perhaps this is not the case.
I opened my account in the UK, and I can easily make UK calls because they are local. I'm not sure what has happened in your case, did you create you account in a country other than Latvia?
Check your account permissions by looking at the International Settings on your account. That should allow you to turn on calls to Latvia. Otherwise, please email your Twilio Account SID to help@twilio.com, with the above details. Twilio's support folks should be able to sort this out for your right away.
