OT: Slydial on Bzz Agent

[sz9144]

Has anyone seen this frogpond site on Bzz Agent? I just tried it and it's great! It's a phone number you can call from landline or cell phone and you enter someone's cell number and it goes directly to their voicemail so if you want to call someone and not talk to them, just leave a message, you can use this number.

I just tried it using my cell, just in case their were hidden charges (I have a text and purchase block on my cell account), and used it rsvp for a birthday party I was declining and didn't want to talk directly to the mom. I had to listen to a 30 second "commerical" or ad or whatever and then it connected me to her voicemail- I love this!

Has anyone else used it?

I saw it on ABC's Tech Bytes and tried it at work to leave a message for a customer that I didn't want to talk to. DH plans to use it when he need's to call his ex.

I imagine on the sprint phone it's the same as any other phone- you just dial the 267-SLYDIAL number and then at the prompt enter the ten digit cell phone number you want to call
