As a Verizon customer I was very much looking forward to finally getting visual voicemail on my Voyager. However, after conflicting statements of the service being free and $2.99 a month, and seeing Verizon settle on it's typical 'nickel-and-dime' method of pricing, I am severely disappointed. I don't care if Verizon's program is slightly more robust than the others -- I shouldn't have to pay $36 a year for something that is offered for free on other networks.
No, I'm not switching from Verizon anytime soon ... in fact, I love their service and phones. This, however is not one feature that I will be utilizing, until Verizon makes it more palatable for me to want it.
