I just set up my Telo this week. I haven't dropped my old AT&T line yet. My old phone has voicemail. I have yet to set up voicemail on my Telo. Now, when someone leaves a message, it still goes to my old phone's voicemail. What will happen when I set up the Telo's voicemail? Will it take over? I have no idea how to override the old phone's voicemail feature. Do folks tend to keep their old voicemail, or switch to the Telos?
Thanks!
Which voicemail do I use?
Re: Which voicemail do I use?
Are you going to port your AT&T number to Ooma or are you going to use the new number you got when you activated the Telo?
If you port, the AT&T account will go away when the port is complete, Ooma voicemail will be your only choice.
If you don't port, calls to the AT&T number will use AT&T voicemail and calls to the new Ooma number will use Ooma voicemail.
If you port, the AT&T account will go away when the port is complete, Ooma voicemail will be your only choice.
If you don't port, calls to the AT&T number will use AT&T voicemail and calls to the new Ooma number will use Ooma voicemail.

No, I'm going to go with the number Ooma gave me. So when I cancel my AT&T VOIP, I'll set Ooma's voicemail and go with that from then on. Thanks!
