1) On the phone with your mom and missed a call that you won that super great contest you entered? If you had setup your voicemail box, you would be much, much richer right now. So… How do you set up/access voicemail?
  • - If you are within the Thunder Bay network service area simply dial 626-9999 to access your voice mailbox, from either your cell phone or your landline. From your HSPA cell phone simply hold down the "1" key while you are anywhere on the TBayTel wireless network.
  • - From outside of the network access your voice mailbox by calling 1-888-847-0936.
  • - The first time you access your voice mailbox you will be required to enter your temporary password (which is your 10-digit telephone or cell phone number, depending on whether you are setting up your home phone or cellular voicemail.) You will then be prompted to choose a new password which must be between 4-19 digits in length. When you are finished entering the new password press "#". You will be prompted to re-enter your new password then press "#" again to confirm. You will then be prompted to record your name, then to press "#" to confirm it. This completes the setup of your new mailbox. Now you can talk to Grandma for hours without risk of missing an important message.
2) I’m expecting a call from the guy I went on a date with last weekend. I can’t miss it. How do I add minutes to the prepaid phone I bought at TOUCH Unwired?
