FWIW: you can turn off automatic recharge and ask for a different reminder limit. Not ideal, but at least it prevents crazy bills.

We didn't have automatic charge. We now have an invoice to pay.
A Twilio invoice or a lawyer’s invoice?
They still bill you no matter what, and if the bill is big enough they will sic collections on you.
This surprises me. I thought they would disable the service when the balance goes negative. I need to add some more monitoring and a failsafe rate limit...
They also continue to bill for recurring services even if your account balance goes to zero, watch out.
