This incident has been resolved.

This has occurred because of new regulations surrounding registering sending messages from "long code" phone numbers (A2P 10DLC). We have started the process to register the numbers we use for sending SMS messages and our vendor has informed us this may take a few weeks.

This only affects sending SMS messages from our virtual SMS inbox service. It does not affect receiving them - so tests that involve sending SMS messages such as MFA login and don't require a response via SMS are unaffected.
