Voicemail Down or being upgraded?

[VOIPoTim]

Tim,

can you change to new VM for my 734-437-xxxx and 352-399-xxxx numbers?
(Please?)

Still hearing Aunt B.

Done for both of your accounts.

Awesome!

Observations for those who want to change now:
(Note: Killer option means AWESOME!)

• 832-838-7000 gets you to old Comedian Mail and lets you here new ones before the switchover.
• Killer option: #4 Send message to Email
• Caller of incoming message can review their recording left
• After your new message is played ... press 1 for new messages, and then it gets the envelope and can be deleted.
• Calling your phone will take a Voice Message

It looks like this will be a worthy addition. Thanks for wanting the best for your customer base! There is obvious refinements before mass switchover. (Advanced options 5 left recording choices, then hung up before picking one) Seemingly there is no way to skip the outgoing message like "#". Pressing any key too soon tells you your message is deleted. Otherwise any key says you are done recording. When leaving a message, any key means done recording. No "*" option as mentioned to directly access your voicemail remotely.

• A wish, would be, MP3 format for Voicemail. I hear that works better with GMail.
• Add a send details to Text Message option too.

Can you move me to the new system?

SMS notification has never worked one time for me so far.

Just moved you.

Just moved you.

I had the same issue so instead of having it sent as an sms to my Verizon cell which would be:

5162349901 in the SMS field - I instead used the email address the phone has (every provider has one):
In the email field I put:
5162349901@vtext.com

Now I receive them every time within a few seconds.

Try that.

Actually you should be putting the SMS email in the SMS field, not the number itself. We need to clarify that.

That makes sense but some of the wireless carriers only require that you enter the digits alone when doing anything SMS.

Additionally, the e-mail field in Voice mail is currently "Locked" in that if I try to change the entry I have in there now, it gives me a blank page upon "set settings" ans reverts back to my previous entry.

The blank page should be fixed shortly. It's on my list I gave to VOIPoRay to look of bugs with this new voicemail system to fix today.

Fixed now, thanks.

Most of the reported issues for the new system should be resolved for those using it. MWI light and stutter tone should be active. You shouldn't get disconnected, etc.

Ray should finish up the remaining items with it like option 5, etc tomorrow.

Thanks - that's good news.

Will we soon be able to call our own number from anywhere and hit the * key to access Voice Mail or will it just be through the 832-888-7000 portal?
