For those of you who aren't getting charged, post a screen shot of your bill LOL. I'm gonna call Sprint and tell on you!

kind of sucks for those people but definitely i'm not getting charged call forwarding fees because its not call forwarding, they actually changed my voicemail number. if you can still call your old voicemail after they set it up, then they did not set it up correctly. This is what happened to me my first month also, i had 3.60 charge. I shouldve known something was wrong because i was still able to access my old voicemail and the new one. When I called back and they fixed it, instantly when I called my number, which was of course my old voicemail number, I instantly got a message saying this is not a sprint recognized voicemail, which means it was now set up correctly. Like the post says try at your own risk, anyone who set it up correctly is definitely not getting charged.

p slim again thanks for the find and great instructions early on, but i set it up correctly bro. You are absolutely correct it is NOT call forwarding even by their convoluted definition (even the tech told me that)... It worked perfectly for me from jump street. My old sprint vm was long gone and I got the same message you did when you got it working. I just know when i'm running into a brick wall bro. She really had no answers for any of my points but in the end she basically said," Call it what you want...you are getting charged if any of your forwarding or vm settings are changed, understand?" I worked EVERY angle, quoted from your post on sprintusers, the sprint websit,etc...believe me I didn't want to cave. Completely 100% bogus but i'm not winning this battle. I hope you continue your success with this cool app along with everyone else.

jupiter when you dial your phone number from your cell phone do you get this is not a recognized mailbox? I get 8312000200 is not a recognized voicemail number.

when i dial my number , it doesnt ring, it goes straight to my phonefusion voicemail

if u get that error, that probably means u didnt set up your account right on the other end at phonefusion. did you type in your cell phone number as the destination number on phonefusion site?

Yeh thats key, if u can still access your old voicemail, they didnt do it right. So call them back. When u call ur voicemail should go right to Phonefusion
