A Suggestion For Your First Call.

After you’ve activated your Omnipoint account, one of the first calls you make should be to personalize your Answering Machine. All calls from your Omnipoint handset to your Answering Machine will be charged at the Off-Peak rate. Here’s how to set up your Answering Machine:

•Dial A123, then press Fto place your call.

•Listen and follow each recorded instruction to create your password and to record your name and your personal greeting.

•Press Gwhen finished. Now your Answering Machine is ready to answer your calls when you can’t answer, you’re busy with another call, or your phone is powered off or out of the Omnipoint coverage area.. (See p. 27 for more information.) You can also use the Caller ID option to screen your calls and press Gto send any calls you don’t want to answer direct to your Voice Mailbox.
