Is there a limit of phone numbers that we can send to at once? We got that issue raised while creating the mass email system.
Otherwise the implementation looks good. Will test again before merging after this PR is approved.
From what I understand here https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/223183648-Sending-and-Receiving-Limitations-on-Calls-and-SMS-Messages, it doesn't seem like there is a limit. It just may take some time to send it to everyone since it's 1 message per API call and the calls get queued on their server. To speed things up, we could purchase more than one phone number, but I think we'll be few enough people that one number will be fine.
Should I create the paid account now?

Works pretty well, and doesn't fail on empty phone numbers

To test, you can create a free trial Twilio account at https://www.twilio.com/try-twilio, which lets you send texts to verified phone numbers only.
In production, we will need to create a paid Twilio account to be able to send texts to any phone number.
