Hey, MordyT, you didn't answer any of my questions lol
I am just kidding.
I appreciate you verifying that info for me
Thanks.
I gotta get the name of the poster regarding the voicemail request.
I will edit this post when I find it.
EDIT:
ikjfdsa is the poster
Post #113 is where the voicemail issue was mentioned.
The voicemail number can be used to call out from and have the voicemail number come up as Private on caller id if option 8 is used for calling out.
The voicemail number can be used as one of the Pick 3 numbers so outgoing is Free as when you use GV.
The only difference would be that the voicemail number would show on the caller id instead of the GV number.
It would appear that the voicemail number would just have to be included in the Exception Rule as you have done.
I think the op had an issue with retrieving his messages because the VM number was going thru GV. But entering his password is the solution.
I may be wrong with what I am saying relating to his request.
When the op reads this, I am sure we will find out
Bottomline is this >
If you let your Vm number go thru GV, you will be calling for free. If you choose to use option 8 from your Vm to call out, the caller id will show Private.
You will also not have to use up one of your Pick 3 if you have the Pick 3 option.
If you add your Vm number to the Magicall Exception Rule, you can call (without Vm thinking it is an outside caller) and use your voicemail options as you usually do regarding retrieving messages without entering your password, option 8 to call out, etc.
You can add your Vm number to Pick 3 (if you have that feature) and outgoing calls are free also. Private would show on Caller id.
Why add your Vm number to the Exception Rule?
So people see Private on their caller id. And there would be no delay on connecting to the call.
If you get alot of Vm messages, including the number in the Magicall Exception Rule may be a good choice because you won't have a transfer delay, and including it in your Pick 3 would make calls to Vm Free.
**EDIT**
My choice is to include my Vm number in the Exception Rule. I could always disengage that Rule if needed.
It only takes 1 1/2 seconds to disengage the Rule. Yes, I timed it
Depending on whether you have
Pick 3 or not, and what your needs are, these are just some of your options.
I think I covered almost everything.
Feel free to add or correct
This post is regarding whether or not to include your Vm number in the Magicall Exceptions Rule.
