How can I check my voice mail on my Nextel 850i without using my Cell phone?

Answer by julie
call your phone number and wait to hear your voicemail message playing (the one right before you hear the beep)
then press the star button (*)
you’ll be asked for you passcode (usually the same password for your phone), and once you enter that, press pound (#) and you’ll be able to listen to your messages. usually that code is six numbers, sometimes more, depending on your provider =)

I want to get the LG Phone Fusic for Sprint but now I don’t know if I want to get it now.A girl from school complained that Sprint charged her mad money because she went out of state.I was also considering Helio or T-Mobile phone Sidekick 2.I need help.I want to get rid of my nextel phone because I hardly use the direct connect.

Answer by rfedges
Tmobile is coming out with the Sidekick III on July 10. You should definitley look into that.

go to compass.t-mobile.com and make sure T-Mobile has adequate service in the areas you need it most. that will tell you if they are an option. Since Nextel has the smallest of the major American networks chances are T-Mobile is okay if they are. The Sidekick II is alright but it’s not bluetooth so it has some limits there. The closest thing T-Mobile has to the Fusic is the SDA phone. I’d recommend looking into that one as well.

Before you sign up for a new contract you should check around for the best deal but beware of the small print. You also should consider if you only use the cell phone occasionally you might want a pay by the minute plan.

I researched and found the best minute to minute plan is Virgin Mobile (888-322-1122). The phone I picked cost $ 39.99 (or $ 49.99?) and has a lot of great features.

It’s a good plan for me since I only use the phone a few minutes a day to call home or meet up with appointments, etc. I don’t use it for idle chatter which makes my 25cents per minute anywhere in the country cheaper in the end (after 10 minutes the rate becomes 10cents per minute on a daily basis). Their customer service is great and can answer all your questions.

I chose Virgin because they were the only minute by minute plan that allows you to roll over your unused minutes if you automatically top-up your account balance with a $ 15 minimum every 3 months (enough time for my monthly cost to be only $ 5 per month) but you can add more money when ever you need it.

I can check my account on-line and see details of every call. They have other plans but I didn’t pay attention to them enough to recommend them.

I like not having a contract since I use it so seldom and they use a major cell phone company with excellent coverage across the country. P.S.- I block phone messages and text messages since I don’t need those services and don’t want to pay for the minutes they would use up.

Switch to T-Mobile. I have them; they’re great. There are so many great plans to choose from.

Well I have Nextel.I don’t use my direct connect that much either.Instead I use my cell more, I think I have the best plan EVER “national free incoming 300″ all incoming calls are free with unlimited long distance.Now I don’t know how much u talk on ur phone but I talk around 6000 minutes and 90 direct connect minutes a month and that plan is PERFECT for me.
