Re: How To: Set Up Visual Voicemail on your Sprint TP for Free

As previously stated throughout this thread, no matter if it is conditional or unconditional, Sprint charges $.20/minute. No way around it. You were misinformed.

Re: How To: Set Up Visual Voicemail on your Sprint TP for Free

Nah...the people who got this working without being charged had 2 things going for them to make it happen. A rep who knew exactly what they were talking about, and also either didn't know/care about the policy of not changing the default vm number. Not much point in furthering this discussion. I think until Sprint changes the policy, it's going to be a repeat of information already posted.

Re: How To: Set Up Visual Voicemail on your Sprint TP for Free

I have followed the instructions laid out in this thread and have hit a snag. When you call my phone you get a message stating the 813 # and then it says that this is an invalid voicemail account. Can someone tell me what I did wrong?

Re: How To: Set Up Visual Voicemail on your Sprint TP for Free

That depends on how many calls were forwarded to voicemail. No way to get a real average b/c everyone has different usage. $.20/minute.

Re: How To: Set Up Visual Voicemail on your Sprint TP for Free

as a warning to all. the OP statement about call forwarding is wrong, you will be charged. you can look it up on thier website. actually in the same place he found his quote, this is quoted "
Call forwarding charges apply, except in the case of Sprint Nextel voicemail or SMS numbers. "

this means if you aren't supposed to do it, you shouldn't and this is what happens.

The reason people like me aren't getting charged is because its not actually forwarding. People who set this up when the op did (which was before he even posted this on ppcgeeks) sprint would actually change our voicemail numbers for us. Now when you try to call in and have them do that they won't change the # at all and only set it up as forwarding. I tried to have my girls phone set up like mine and I ran into the same problems as everyone else, they won't change voicemail numbers anymore.
