Preferences

This setting allows you to subscribe to or unsubscribe from the monthly paid plan. If you are not in a paid plan, you will receive the free, basic Visual Voicemail plan.

Plans include the following:

●

Basic Visual Voicemail

●

Premium Visual Voicemail — includes voice to text transcription in English or Spanish for incoming voicemail messages, auto forwarding of voicemail messages to email and your SMS Inbox, flagging and noting messages, and creating custom storage folders

Subscribe to the paid plan

1.

After you tap Manage subscription in the Preferences settings screen, you will see a window that describes the monthly subscription plan. Tap SUBSCRIBE.

2.

Next, you will see a message such as the following: "Please wait...Activating monthly Visual Voicemail service."

3.

Please wait while the server verifies and updates your account. You will then see a subscription message displayed in the application.

Note: The procedures above are for personal accounts. If your mobile service is paid for by a corporate account, you cannot subscribe to paid plans from within the Visual Voicemail application. To subscribe using such an account, an individual who is authorized to provide the account PIN must contact your service provider's customer service.

Once you have unsubscribed from Premium Visual Voicemail service, the Manage subscription option is disabled on the Preferences settings screen. Your subscription will be canceled on your plan's monthly billing date. You will not be able to resubscribe to Premium service until that date has passed. At that time, the Manage subscription option will be re-enabled.
