BALL_BF16.gif (512 bytes) What is voicemail?
BALL_BF16.gif (512 bytes) For how long are the voicemail messages kept?
BALL_BF16.gif (512 bytes) How long can the messages be?
BALL_BF16.gif (512 bytes) How many voice messages can I keep at the same time?

What is voicemail?
Voicemail is like adding an answering machine to your pager. When someone dials your pager number they will hear a greeting in your voice. You can instruct the caller to leave a voice message or key in a number at the tone. If they leave a message you will be paged with your own number to let you know you have a message waiting. You can then dial your pager number to retrieve the message (you will be given a security code to assure privacy). If the caller keys in a number, you will be paged with the numbers they pressed as if you had standard pager service.

For how long are the voicemail messages kept?
We have two options: Standard and Executive Voicemail. With standard voicemail the message will be held in memory for 6 hours. With Executive voicemail the messages are held for 12 hours. The prices for both voicemail packages are available on our Voicemail page.

How long can the messages be?
Both the greetings and incoming messages can be as long as 30 seconds.

How many voice messages can I keep at the same time?
You can keep up to 20 messages at a time. This has proven to be more than adequate because you will be paged each time someone leaves a message.

BALL_BF16.gif (512 bytes) How much do you charge for repairs?

What do I do if my pager stops working?
First check the battery. Many times replacing your battery is all that is needed. Always use a brand new alkaline battery (Not one that has been laying in a drawer somewhere). Pay attention to the way the battery comes out of your pager so you can put the replacement battery in properly. If you forget which way the battery came out look for a diagram near the battery compartment on your pager.

O.K. I changed the battery and my pager still doesn't work. Now what?
At ProBeep we know how important pager service is to our customers. If your pager isn't working we make every effort to get the problem fixed ASAP. If you don't have a credit card we can still help. We repair all of the pagers we sell on the premises. Once we receive your pager we will either repair or replace your unit and ship it back to you the same day we receive it.

How much do you charge for repairs?
As long as your pager is active with us and your account is in good standing we will repair any manufacturers defects for under $25.00! Unfortunately, we cannot warranty pagers that have been physically damaged, water damaged, or pagers that have been tampered with. All other repairs and maintenance will be provided to our active customers at no charge.
