You aren't getting the robot voicemails yet? I mean sure I can ignore those too - but it's that much more annoying since I now have to filter through my voicemails to see if anyone left a message that actually matters.
I'd guess about 1/3 of robocallers are leaving me voicemails now. I also very recently started getting obvious phishing attempts via SMS.
- Jaygles 7y agoFor some reason that happens very rarely for me so its not that big of a chore to listen to all the voicemails I receive.
- BitwiseFool 7y agoAbout 1/2 of all my voicemails are in Mandarin.
- EamonnMR 7y agoThis is why I just don't listen to voicemail. There is no reason to leave a voicemail, just send a text.
- wuunderbar 7y agoYeah that's going to screw you over at some point, I presume. I had the California DMV try to reach out to be about some form inconsistencies and they only contacted me by phone and voicemail. (To their credit they left me 3 voicemails through a very busy day I had.) There was no other way they were going to contact me before letting my car registration expire.
- asdf21 7y agoSame thing just happened to me just this week, I wasn't checking voicemails because I get too many spam calls / spam messages and I almost got withdrawn from Graduate School because of it -- (I needed to verify a term break and since I never did, automatic withdraw initiated.) Sorted it out, but barely. Very frustrating to have that sort of outcome from the root cause of phone spammers.
- michaelt 7y agoMy cell provider could disable voicemail, after I asked them nicely. That way people don’t even get the impression they’ve left me a message.
