I less than appreciated being woken at 3:30am to be given a voicemail message from a pimp who'd called around 5pm the day before. If the phone rings in the middle of the night I answer it, but it BETTER be an emergency. Can Vodafone be convinced to give two hoots about its prepaid customers? Do complaints go anywhere other than the circular file? Please advise.
New voicemail message: "David's phone. If you are calling with a job opportunity, or are a recruiter, I am currently employed and am not. Seeking. Work. Anyone else, please leave a message." Recruiters I know and like are, of course, excepted ;-)
whine, whine. Life is good otherwise. I will be attending one or both of Dorkbot and M:Alice this evening, though I'm still not sure precisely.
Update: He'd actually called around 5pm on the 11th. Nine days ago.

Date: 2004-10-20 03:26 am (UTC)I've never understood why anyone would actually want to have a voicemail system randomly ring them up and try to playback messages. Surely the whole point of voicemail is you can listen to messages at your convenience.
[Also, with Vodafone at least, you can do *#147# to check the last number called, even if it went straight to voicemail, so you don't even have to bother with checking the voicemail if it's somebody you don't want to be bothered by.]

Date: 2004-10-20 04:55 am (UTC)Surely a text would be simpler (and far less likely to wake you).
