Re: Visual Voicemail
Was thinking it could be managed like any other add-on in the app. No need to change plans. I can understand their take it or leave it business model though. It's great value, simple... just a bit "driving my company car with Nokia 6110 in 2001" era - and the Orange VM menus were better too.19KViews1like2CommentsRe: Visual Voicemail
Yeah, I understand that. Severap moderator comments have come back with the "we're low cost / no-frills / reasonable prices" and I was adding voice to the idea that would you charge me a little bit for that frill and I would pay you. To Smarty's credit, the reason why the additional £3 or £5 for Hullomail seems expensive is because that is a fair chunk next to the £10 or so that I pay Smarty for my contract. When I used to pay EE £45 (including the phone) that seemed less significant. If Smarty were to offer an add-on where I paid another £1 or so per month that would add significantly to profit for Smarty (assuming 20% margin at the moment) and I'd be a super happy customer. Just saying. 😉19KViews1like5CommentsRe: Visual Voicemail
I was a long time free user of Hullomail then started paying when transcription was kind of new. Love the system but at £2.99 per month for 10 voicemails or £4.99 for unlimited it's not IMHO worth that much. The free tier showed you who called (integrated with my contacts) and you had a playable message already available on your phone. I'd pay £1 for that bit I don't want the premium transcription. A £1 add-on from SMARTY would be very welcome option. No frills needed, just a list of messages and their phone number instead of having to phone in 'blind' and listen to the whole of a phone number that it will be nearly impossible to remember before getting to the message. If this was 2001 again that would still be sub par.19KViews1like7Comments
