A new service called Slydial connects you directly to to someone’s mobile voicemail – without ever having the phone ring. Sneaky.
Here’s how it works:
- Dial 267-SLYDIAL (267-759-3425) from any landline or mobile phone.
(It doesn’t work if you have caller id blocked on your phone) - At the voice prompt, enter the U.S. mobile phone number of the person you want to slydial.
- After a brief ad, you will be directly connected to their voicemail.
I tried this out on my husband’s cell phone and it really works. It put me right in his voicemail with no indication that I’d done anything differently. I can think of a few good uses for this. Can you? Here are some from Slydial.
