Is anyone guilty of letting their voicemails build up before they check it?
I know this is bad, but I just looked at my phone and realized I have 23 voice mails....how do they build up so quickly???I just went through them the other day! Is anyone guilty of letting their voicemails build up before they check it?
I think its because before the Storm I had a Virgin Mobile phone, and the problem with it was that the voicemail process just to check was SO long.
The robot operator would speak so slow and explain every detail of leaving a voicemail and deleting them took for ever. It would also read out the phone number of the caller. I think they did this to make more money to make you stay on phone longer...
So now I just let my VMs build up!

I just check the call log first to see who the missed calls are from. I won't bother checking the voicemails depending on who it was that left them.

i definately need this voice to text thing. Is that the same as visual voicemail? Originally Posted by TootNBerry

nobody i know leaves voicemails...so i usually listen to them right away, considering that they're usually something important if they leave a message...but most friends send sms instead of VM anyway...

and if they leave a VM thats how you know its not a friend...LOL. Originally Posted by patches152

Correction: unless their drunk. - 08-22-2009, 05:15 PM #17
if they're drunk, they call me like 90 times in a row...no voicemails to be left, unless there is a group of people who want to scream at me from a crowded party...
- 08-22-2009, 08:15 PM #19 I am not familiar with that one but from what I have read I think it is completely different. Visual voicemail is a list of callers I think, not the actual voicemail written out as text. Originally Posted by Card Storm

VVM doesn't do transcripts...it basically only does what the name says...it's a visual inbox of your voicemail...so you can select and listen to each one individually, in any order, fast forward, save to your device as a voicenote, whatever...

No. I handle my business and personal matters ASAP. Procrastinators annoy the eff outta me.

Card Storm -- Google Voice will transcribe the voicemails for you... the only downside is, the person has to call you Google Voice number. It does its magic voodoo and then emails it to you.

My Voicemail box is really small, so I tend to check immediately.
