Do you have to use DEVHACK20 because I don't want to give my debit card details away as it is insecure and I don't want any accidental charges. Also having difficulties buying a number as it asks you for an address.

Hey Emily - You certainly don't have to use the DEVHACK20 promo code to participate in the hackathon. It does provide a $20 credit should you need to upgrade your account, but you can additionally use PayPal to add funds to your account.

Sorry to hear that you're having difficulties buying a number. As mentioned in this support article, there are some places where Twilio is required to collect information about the end user. What are the specific issues you are running into?
