Why should I use BayLink instead of telephone company voicemail?
There are 4 major reasons why BayLink voicemail is a superior choice to your local telephone company’s voicemail.
BayLink does not offer this option. The national phone number inventory functuates and many phone companies recycle numbers. This creates the situation where you may start receiving calls for the prevous user of this number. Before issuing a number BayLink does a number of checks to minimize this possibility. return to top
How many messages can I receive?
There is no limit as to the number of messages (calls) that you can receive. However, each BayLink service does limit the number of messages that can be kept in the message box. Regular housekeeping (message deletion) eliminates this problem. Please refer to individual service descriptions for specifics. You may also wish to customize the message capacities for your specific needs. Please refer to MyBayLink section of this web site. return to top
