@visionsIT: Character encoding issues tend to be related to how the carrier networks handle special characters (GSM vs. Unicode), not the Twilio helper libraries themselves. The solution is also not universal and cannot be implemented in the libraries themselves.

I recommend you reach out to our support team to fully investigate this issue: https://www.twilio.com/console/support/tickets/create

When submitting the ticket, please provide a couple recent Message SIDs so they can investigate immediately.

A Message SID is a 34-digit unique identifier that starts with "SM" or "MM". You can find the Message SIDs in your account's message log: https://www.twilio.com/console/sms/logs
