Default Re: Youmail - A Customizable Voicemail Alternative

I talked with a Sprint Rep this morning to confirm myself and my account, so I can't speak on yours, but my account has the ability and no cost to me at all. I like the Sprint Visual VM on Hero compared to not having it on WM, but being able to link my Google Voice or YouMail is a pretty nice feature to have. With thos two, I can block numbers that I don't want to speak with at all, especially since Android doesn't have a MagiCall (best call controller :) G Blocker is ok, but not all that. When I have GV or YM I can have what I want to happen to any number I have in my address book. I can make it sound like the phone is out of service or if I'm going out that night and want to leave specific messages for specific drinking peoples ;) I can. When those specific people call, it will leave a message for them and anyone else who calls will get whatever message I have set up for them. It's not just the VM capabilities, it's what comes with those free services. They also do transcription, which Sprint still doesn't offer. Just my few cents. When you look at the options, it's an easy decision to have more options, then less for the same cost. I would call a Sprint Rep to confirm what you have. From the beginning it's been stated mid-November with Sprint, but the 8th has been a date thrown around and I confirmed that I will not get charged and as I stated up above if you hit *28(and the number you are forwarding) and it doesn't do anything, then you probably don't have it yet. Again, Good Luck.
