Setting Up Voicemail on Landline without having to type in your 10 digit phone # | Phone/Device Issues and Features | Consumer forum

First off, thanks for this wonderful site. Got a lot of info here.

So I thought I'd give back a little.

I am not sure if this had been mentioned in the forums already. I have a Panasonic phone for my landline. I setup my voicemail number to be:
6472789956##########[My speakout wireless number]#

e.g. 6472789956#########6471234567#

It needed exactly 9 #'s in the middle, and I don't know why.

It dialed straight into my own mailbox without having to go through the prompt to enter your wireless number.

I tried this with my rogers cellphone (waiting for it to be ported over to speakout), but it didn't work.

Anyway, hope this will help some people!

Cheers.
