Twilio Inbound SMS issue using Node.js

Question

I am trying to set up a node.js app as listener for twilio inbound sms.I have created a twilio account which gave me trial sandbox number(USA).

Using this trial number I was able to successfully send SMS to verified mobile numbers But when I send SMS to the sandbox trial number my app is not able to receive the same and twilio logs also didn't show up the inbound SMS details. I have configured the end point in twilio SMS URL and the end point is accessible. Are there any restrictions for inbound SMLS for twilio trial sandbox number. I have sent multiple messages to the number but still no luck.

Please note am trying to send SMS to a US twilio sandbox number from India. Could you suggest what I am missing.

Twilio Developer Evangelist here,

I apologize for this issue you are running into. I have just recreated this issue, as did another member of my team. A bug report has been filed.

Keep in mind, you can still obtain a unique Twilio number while using a trial account. See the Getting Started page to get your Twilio number. This will allow you to use our API while still being on a trial account. The limitations of trial accounts can be found here.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we'd love to mail you a Twilio t-shirt to say thank you. Since Stack Overflow doesn't allow for private messaging, please shoot me a private message on twitter to @br0dan with your address and t-shirt size.
