Is it the giffgaff man who goes “champion” after you set up the password you’re never going to use

This exact thing happened to me too!

How voicemail retrieval should work:

  1. Call voicemail.
  2. Hear useful messagee.
  3. Get option to hear caller’s number

How it actually works:

  1. Call voicemail.
  2. Spend three thousand seconds listening to the automated reel-off of the caller’s number.
  3. Hear three seconds of nothing.

Absolute bollocks, mate.

If you have my number and I don’t answer, send a quick text.

My mobile provider charges extra to access voicemails. Frankly astounded by their chutzpah, tbh

Turned mine off because every single voicemail that I ever received was something along the lines of this from ol’ ma dots: “Hi Addy! Just giving you a quick call to catch up, give me call back when you get this message darling. Bye!”

It was kinda sweet but having a missed call from someone is enough for me to know they’ve called and I will always call them back.

I still get the same message from my dad every now and then (much along the lines of @andyvine up there), just ‘Hi, it’s me, hope you’re well, catch you soon.’ The only other person to have left me a voicemail in the last few months was Terry the gas engineer, and he left three increasingly irate ones because he called when I was switching mobile providers and I was without that number for a couple of days (sorry Terry!). Might bin it off.

Hop onboard the voicemail ban wagon!

I didn’t realise you could turn off voicemail!

Like loads of people it seems, it’s only my mum who leavese voicemails. I’ve asked her not to bother (as I’ll call her back anyway) but she seems to be incapable of not leaving a message when faced with a beep
