Sipgate Answer Phone

I'm calling the Sipgate voice mail box to try and set up my personal message
and I am getting a recorded message in German (I think). Appologies up front
if it's not.

Any ideas?

There is a bug in the voicemail system somewhere which unfortunately still
hasn't been sorted out, although I hope it will be soon..! Try dialling
again and you will get the English message on the next try or maybe after
two or three..!

Anyway, the options to set up an outgoing message are as follows:

Dial 50000 and when the message starts (in English or German..!) enter a 0
(zero) for the voicemail options menu.

Then enter 1 to record your outgoing message. Speak it after the bleep and
when you are finished press the # key. You are limited to 30 seconds for
the o/g message.

Then press 2 to listen to it, and if you are satisfied press 1 to save it,
or 3 to re-record it. Don't forget to press # after speaking the message
or it won't save.

Then press * to return to the main menu or hang up.


Hope this helps,

Ivor

I think you should just give up Sipgate, they are rubbish. Not working
consistently and no support. I am now using vopifone and it's much better
and also cheaper. Also, their voice mail prompt sounds more professional...

i see ivor is still supporting sipgate the fool, VONAGE never has these
problems and for 18.99 a month you have unlimited calls and a free fax line,
my previous bills used to be over 340 quid a month for business calls now
their only 18.99

Thanks for that guys. I'll try all the suggestions and possibly give a few
of the other services a go.
