This is for mass sending SMS messages onto the T-Mobile network, particularly with what’s called A2P 10DLC. Essentially, sending automated and transactional messages that come from full length phone numbers. Over the past few years T-Mobile specifically and the industry generally have continually worked on tightening restrictions on these. As it stands now, to work with a business like Bandwidth in order to send these kinds of messages, you have to verify your business, and then verify and justify each messaging campaign. If end users start reporting too many messages that are sent from these numbers as spam, a human will eventually review the reported messages and their campaigns. The most likely way the fine itself will work is that T-Mobile charges Bandwidth (or whomever you’re routing messages through), and they pass on the fine to you. Edit: typo
