That is just like the GSM equivalent in T-Mobile. I also like the ring
better and NOT the text message (that means there are two things to
delete for each voicemail).

VZW had apparently decided to start playing "takeaway" with it's customers.
First it was free calls to your voicemail, then detailed call info in your
bill-- now no voicemail ring. Of course, there's no reduction in the monthly
fee for what you signed up to get but they no longer give you.

Do they honestly think that's any way to treat a customer? Way to go guys--
keep it up and we'll start bailing out.

Please do not speak for me by saying "we'll".
I may or may not agree with you but I have not
made you my representative.

I'm not. But I live in my own separate reality so it doesn't bother me.

I am in the same market. My bill also state that I can call CS and have them
change it back to its "current" default notification.

Does this apply to all VZW markets?

Additionally, if this eventually spreads to all markets, what about those of
us who have instructed Verizon to block all TXT messages sent to our
phones?!!

You can have text messages blocked? That's good to know...but, why would
you do that...getting a lot of spam? At .02/piece, I wouldn't want that
either...

Yes, you can do that, but a caveat. CS *MUST* do it, in which case EMAIL is
sent to you (or your nickname) at vtext.com, where it is converted and sent,
but if you if you do it yourself (IE Block all messages on the vtext
website, it will no longer work at all). Essentially, it blocks any INCOMING
SMS messages, but not email converted to sms messages.

That's the way I have it set, and it's real nice to be able to get messages
I want, yet block all those others. (I call it having my cake and eating it
too :)

Yes

Exactly! Verizon allows you to make a blacklist, but what we really need is
a whitelist. When each of 3 phones got 5 spam txt messages in one day, I
pulled the plug on txt messaging.

I'd guess you would still get them, you just wouldn't be charged for
them.

a bill as of 4/19 in the SF market doesn't mention it in the messages.

T-Mobile does the same thing, as far as sms instead of VM Indicator, and
they don't charge for it either.
System messages are free for T-Mobile. I would imagine that VZW would do the
same thing.

Evidently, I am in Central FL. Last night instead of voice mail I got a text
message, I am not sure if that is the beginning or not
