I believe calls to voicemail are free/included in Vodafone’s plans. So which telco’s actually charge for calls to voicemail? 

For me personally it was never about the money, it was about the slow and archaic system of “You have one new message. Received today at…”.

Thankfully I have Spark’s “visual voicemail” app now so I can listen to messages right away without having to sit through 17 minutes of a slow audio menu telling me to press 1, press 2, etc.

I guess my point is, voicemail is such an old school system and I think a lot of younger folk find it cumbersome and painful.

@ ANglEAUT

Well done - great work - thank you very much 👍🍷

Ok, go tell Newshub

He's made a right old twitter cockup. 

When the subject worker is 'L'.

Is it really that odd? I have seen several folk on these forums state they do not answer call from numbers they do not know.

 

In this scenario, get a test we will call you, yes, Id then answer a call from a number I didn't know, I expect it.

On my phone that still has voice mail enabled, I personally have my phone in flight mode much of the time so it doesn't disturb me, and just enable it a few times a day to see if any messages. But I think there are a growing number of people that don't use or like using the phone. Some people have a phobia or sorts answering calls from people they don't know.

If it wasn't clear now (CLEARLY outlined in media releases) about what you should and shouldn't do now if you are in a classification re testing and staying the f at home. You deserve to be held accountable.

 

 

 

did this chart actually say a 21 year old had liaison with a year 9 student?

 

Could have been a lot of things.  Tutoring for instance?

Well maybe they should not have given their phone number?? For crying out loud there is a pandemic on. Pandemic or answer a call when you are expecting one after a test? If this is how society is forget Covid, there is no chance, so expect lockdowns, all good....

And you wonder why we have problems? Forget the border, forget MIQ, attitudes like these people make it impossible to control. Weakest link.

Just got a Stuff alert. Young people say Govt's Covid 19 message is too old too stale and way too long

There you have it, can't be bothered

Its old as its been a year

Its stale as its repeating the same message

Its long because its important

It seems this team of 5 million is failing, the great pity is most of us aren't, but we will all wear the results

would you still leave it on flight mode if you were expecting test results or contact tracing people to contact you?

Tell them what?

That when they deliberately misrepresent facts that people notice and react?  It's exactly what they want.

 

The KFC worker, "Case C", says she was never told to isolate. An official text message stated she and her household members "don't need to". She's upset with the PM's comments, has been attacked online, and wants an apology. 

 

Typical crappy reporting from Newshub, presenting sensational hearsay as a headline clickbait, zero effort to fact-check, shoved at people via social media with full knowledge that it's going to be "divisive" - thus further shared on social media.

It's about as useful a headline (and entire tweet) as "Woman says she's seen WW2 bomber on the moon".

That report about the moon is completely wrong. It was a bus.
