Voice Mail

Here’s a service from Public Service Telephone that makes sure that every call to your telephone gets answered without you having to buy additional equipment or install extra phone lines. When you’re unable to answer a call (even if you’re already on the line) Voice Mail will take your calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This service is a valuable asset for many of our customers, both residential and business. You won’t have to wait around for an important call again.

When Voice Mail answers your call for you, the caller hears a greeting in your own voice and is then invited to leave a message. You are then notified with a special dial tone that you have messages waiting. If you pick up your phone and hear a normal dial tone you have no messages. If you hear a “stutter” dial tone, you have messages. Your messages can be retrieved at any time from anywhere with a touch tone phone. To get your messages, simply call a special number and dial in your private security code. The system will then play back your messages. You can decide to temporarily save a message or erase it. It’s as simple as that. And Voice Mail will walk you through the correct procedure each time you use the service. There’s never any guess work.

There’s no equipment to buy and maintain, it’s more dependable than an answering machine and much less expensive than an answering service.
