To The Man Who Called Me About My Domains For Sale

I got a voicemail a couple days ago from a man who was interested in buying domain or two that I own. Unfortunately, his voicemail broke up in some key spots, so all I basically got out of it was that his name was Benjamin from some Portland-based company. His phone number didn't show up on my call log on my phone as I was out of coverage range when he called, so I can't get the number from that. I couldn't understand the company name he was representing nor could I understand the entire phone number he left (beyond the 503 area code), as the message was breaking up (I listened to it about 12 times. I basically got the first six digits (503564), but that was about it.

If you're Benjamin, and you're reading this, e-mail me at utterlyboring {at} gmail {dot} com or call me again (I have limited coverage in this office, so e-mail's probably better). I could certainly use the extra money right now (we really need to replace our sewer line, and that's not even remotely something we can afford right now).

It's no help now, and it involves a new phone number, but Google Voice shows missed calls now. That's saved my butt a couple times now.

Yeah, I've had a Google voice account for quite a while, really wishing I could just port my number to it, as I've had the same cell # for many years, and would like to keep it.

Me too. I actually set my T-Mobile phone to use my GV voicemail, and it wiorks quite well.

The problem with setting your phone to use GV Voicemail is that you then can't call in to check it using the provider's standard voicemail features. Though I'm wondering if the benefits out-weighs the negatives now that I have an android phone.

I haven't actually had a problem with it. I have it set up so the voicemail button on my phone calls my GV number to check it, and there's also the GV app (I'm on a MyTouch 3G Slide).
