    Been using this service over the weekend and its FANTASTIC.

    In my line of work not many people will leave a voicemail especially when the call is diverted from my landline as its all too easy to call another company.

    I was out of range for a short while which i didnt even realise, got a text saying two people had tried to call. I rung them back using my free allowance and got the bookings.

    Normally i would have lost out on them!!

    Whoopee, i like this service.

    It wont suit everyone but it does for me.
    The best things in life are for FREE!!!

    Interesting. I've never had a voicemail so I dont know if I pay to pick them up. I am on pay as you go. I am always convinced that someone has rung even when they havent and even though I have a very load ring.

  • i just reverted back to voicemail , after i realised that the service took over voicemail.

    most phones (i know my nokia does) list missed calls - provided person is not hiding his/her identity, when the phone is on and in range.
  • Thank you.
    Smile and be happy, things can usually get worse!

    And this is now available on T-Mobile and possibly Virign too. It is nice if oyu have voicemail but incredible if you don't For those people that pay to access voicemail I would ditch the voicemail and just use this. alternatively move to Virign or T-Mobile where all tariffs offer free voicemail access.
