normally thats a sign that it doesnt know where to route the phone call to (because its not on the list of destination numbers)

I think you miss understood me. so your new voicemail number is 8132000200, if you want to access your voicemail you dial that number. Before when you wanted to access your voicemail, you would dial whatever # your cell phone # is. So i'm asking when you dial your cell phone # from your cell phone what message do you get?
What you are refferring to is on the phonefusion side, i'm referring to your oldvoicemail number. you can still dial that number and what do you get?

well I just called and found out they set mine up for call forwarding instead of actually changing the number ... when I called back the girl said she couldn't actually change the number ... guess I will try again later :shrug:

when I call my cell munber from my handset I get 8312000200 is not a recognized voicemail number, Is this correct?

oh its exactly as i stated earlier: when i dial my cellphone number from my cellphone(same way i used to check voicemail with sprint) it doesnt ring and takes me to my new phonefusion voicemail. Well i hear my greeting, but i still have to type in my password to hear my voicemails. But to be clear NO i dont dial 8132000200 to access my voicemail (if i wanted to hear them in the speaker instead of playing them on the phone with WMP)

oh never tried that, let me get my phone and try now


EDIT: update
It recognizes my phone, because it says "Please enter your password, followed by the pound sign".
I enter my password and i can hear my phonefusion voicemails

I understand yours doesnt do that, but u can check your phonefusion voicemails on your phone with no problem? You only have 1 number(your cellphone) set as the destination number at phonefusion?
ANd if u dont get the message i do, if u wanted to hear the messages through the earpiece, how do u hear them?

Mine does do that, thats what i mean when it says it works perfectly. but if yours is setup right, you shouldn't be able to call your old voicemail number because they have disconnected it. it seems as if when you call your old voicemail number its automatically forwarding yours to phone fusion, that may result in charges.

The only thing i had to do was go to phone, settings, then change my voicemail number physically on my phone, so that way if i have to listen to it in private, i can still do it the old way.

oh wow, i hope this isnt the case!
but why cant it be that , just like u would check your sprint voicemail, it dials phonefusion because the number to sprint voicemail has simply been changed to the 813 number?
like the basis here, is to actually make no changes to call forwarding, no answer etc,the only thing to change is the number that sprint's voicemail goes to

because to my understanding, they dont turn off sprint voicemail, u just change the number that sprint voicemail points to? if thats the case then I could see why dialing my cellphone goes to phonefusion: sprint voicemail is on, just that the number for sprint voicemail is now 813blah...
understand?
