Checking Voicemail

**budmaster** · 04-15-2012 05:51 PM

Two Questions:

Is it possible to check voice mail by calling the VOIPO phone number and entering a PIN?

Is it possible to receive SMS test of the voicemail left? Similar to Google Voice does.

I believe you can gain access during the outgoing voice mail message.
Maybe the # key?

Its been so long I don't recall how? There used to be a number that could be called too I think?

I never bother with SMS, maybe someone can yet fill in the blanks.

I don't think there is a number... which is unfortunate. I was in a cab in New York one morning, and I wanted to check messages, but I didn't want to wake everybody at home in California, but there was no other way to do it.

After that (and due to several other shortcomings of Voipo voicemail) I splurged $15 for a year of Youmail... Excellent investment!

I’m quite pleased with all my voicemail being sent to email—and the details provided in the email as well. Because of this, I’ve never dialed into my voicemail to retrieve it…

First question: Yes - see http://voipo.com/help/article/checki...cemail-53.html
Second question: You can get a notification, but not a transcript. See http://voipo.com/help/article/voicem...ntrols-50.html

That is the answer for checking voicemail. There are times when we don't have Internet access, this number will be very convenient. Too bad you can't do it by calling your own number.

You can.....see post #3. Look at option #4 under the different ways to check your voicemail.

Post # 4 seems to be referring to buy an additional service.

I never read to the bottom of the link provided in #3. I quit reading when I saw the 123. I now see the last line where you can dial a "0". Thanks for making me look again.
