Visual Voicemail and Blackberry Tour

[gmandisco]

So went down to the Store today. Figured i'd give visual Voicemail a try. Come to find out theres a thing on my account that says Visual Voicemail Ineligible. Can anyone help me to figure out why? i called customer service she said she would talk to the tech support and get back to me. I didnt even think about getting her name..... arrg.

The problem you're having is that VZW's Visual Voicemail app is terrible. Not to mention expensive! If you really want visual voicemail check out YouMail. It's a free VVM app you can find in Blackberry App World. It's easy to set up and takes very little memory and resources on your Tour, best of all it's FREE.

Yes, I have it and it works great. The U-mail.

Yes, I've tried visual voice mail on the tour and it works great.  I also used YouMail and I think it's better because 1, it's FREE; 2, you could remotely manage your voice messages from YouMail's website; and since Verizon Wireless is on the Nationwide Plans now, it's mostly likely going to be a local call for YouMail. 

{no third party software/apps links please}

Look into it.
