Voicemail - Faster to the Beep

[source : How the number 7 saves you 30 seconds a day - a cell phone hack]

“The number you’ve dialed xxx-xxx-xxxx is not available, please leave a message…” The above link gives a shortcut to bypass this message.

Have you ever called a friend, gotten their voice mail, and discovered that they were too lazy to record their own message.  So you get a semi robotic female voice saying “The number you have dialed x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x is not available please leave a message after the tone, If you’d like to page this person, press X - BEEP.”  If you’re like me you’d just like to bypass the message.

Well just press 7 next time you get someone’s voicemail, it will take you straight to the “beep.”

I’ve tested this on my home phone and it works, but it doesn’t work on my cell phone, wondering why, anyway it is cool to save some odd 30 seconds.
