Rent a number for Twitter
Rent a number to register and unlock Twitter / X
Twitter locks fresh accounts in batches and lifts the lock in exactly one way — SMS confirmation. The unlock form offers no alternatives: no email, no captcha, only the number. So the number here is needed less for registration than for getting the account back a week after it. We rent physical numbers on real SIMs.
How Twitter checks the number
SMS two-factor at Twitter is available on the paid subscription only, while the forced number check on a lock applies to everyone for free — so the number is needed even by those who never enabled 2FA. The unlock form rejects virtual ranges, and does it silently: the error message is the same for a wrong code and for an unsupported number.

FAQ
Twitter locked the account right after registration
That is standard behaviour for new accounts. Unlocking runs through SMS confirmation; the form offers no other route.
Do I need the paid subscription to confirm a number?
No. Paid is needed for SMS two-factor, while the check on a lock is available to everyone.
The form reports an error although the code is correct
The message is identical for a wrong code and for a rejected number. Usually it is the latter: the form does not accept virtual ranges.
Can one number unlock several accounts?
No, the number is remembered against the account. A series of accounts needs different numbers.
