I'm debating switching over the Speak Out as I am getting lots of spam voicemail/texts on another provider and end up having to pay out a good amount money on my current balance. This is adding up quickly.

I noticed that FAQ #9 states the following:

You are not charged for the time that other callers spend leaving messages on your voicemail.

Is this still the case as of October 11, 2018?

A customer representative from Speak Out that I spoke with at 1-866-310-1023 was quite adamant that you will be charged airtime rates when others leave messages via voicemail.

Can someone please confirm or deny this claim?

Thanks.

You will not be charged when someone just leaves you a voicemail. Of course, you will be charged airtime when you access voicemail from your SpeakOut phone.

The customer service rep who told you that was just plain wrong.
