I believe Sprint cut off the *11#,that use to go str8 to VM, will try....u can always dial from your VM I think and reach other Sprint VM.

It still works for me, just dial 11(then the 10 digit phone number) and the other parties phone will not ring it will go straight to v-mail. I use it on and off when I need to leave a message to my GF and dont want the phone to ring at her work place during working hrs.

This is only a Sprint to Sprint thing.

really???

just 11xxx-xxx-xxxx??

**edit** tried it.. works.. thats pretty nifty... 9 yrs, never knew sprint had a internal feature like this

***edit2*** http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=32784 slydial, for non sprint to sprint calls, not really an app, more like a free service

havent been on sprintusers in yrs really, used it snag some links from time to time back when it was a jankie lil wap site.. maybe ill go take a look

**edit** well that made my day, go to sprintusers, the front page news thing loads(wow, how many sites did we steal that idea from, thought we wanted to be unique here at ppcg,bu whatever lol), and BOOM, Sprint Exec crushed my briefcase sized boulder that fell off a mountain.... that would freakin suck

Been using since my old LG flippy back in 01! One of the best features on Sprint!

This function works but it now eats up your mins. Trust me, I've learned the hard way!
