A phone validator for Laravel using the FREE [Twilio phone lookup service](https://www.twilio.com/lookup)

This custom validator validates that a phone number actual exists. Not just if it has a specific format or not, but if the phone number is a real registered phone number. It is smart enough to handle formated numbers like `(123)-555-1234` and unfromated numbers like `1235551234` so users can enter in a phone number however they are most comfortable.

For a working example check out [Laravel Validator Example](https://github.com/stuyam/validators) project.

Also see: [Laravel Kickbox Validator](https://github.com/stuyam/laravel-kickbox-validator) for email address validation.
