How Can You Use No. "1" For Both Voice Mail Retrieval & Al..

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.verizon (More info?)

Hello:

New user, still.
Trying to understand all of this, a bit, before actually trying.

I understand that pressing "1" takes me to my Voice Mail.

Can I also use the number "1" for a speed dial (one touch dialing) location
?
How ?

Wouldn't they interfere with each other ?

Thank you,
Bob

You just answered your own question... You can't.

Bob, What phone do you have. I'm not sure, but some may "hardwire" key
number 1 to call voicemail. I have an LG and have the option of using key 1
for whatever number I wish to program. By convention, I chose to program it
for voicemail rather than some other number.

You can't! 1 is for voicemail. You could I suppose reprogram the
voicemail number to a regular speed dial number, but it's either a
regular speed dial or voicemail. Both is just not possible.

Yes.

No.

>Wouldn't they interfere with each other ?

Yes. But your phone may have more than 10 '1-touch' dials. By
definition, 1 touch means hold down 1-9 & 0 to dial, but often you can
also use say up to 99 - press 2 then hold down 1 for 21, 5 then hold
down 3 for 53, etc.
