Voice Mail Upgrade
February 26, 2010 — Great news! MTA is introducing a new and improved voice mail system, PremierVoice.
In preparation for this upgrade, please delete any unwanted messages, which will help us reduce transition time. Your voice mail will be unavailable Sunday, March 28, 2010, from 12:01 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. During this short twelve-hour window, the system will not receive any additional messages or allow you to access your voice mailbox or check your messages.
On Sunday afternoon, March 28, 2010, you may notice a new system voice and a few additional prompts. The save (9) and delete (7) key prompt options will remain the same. You will receive an updated key prompt card in the mail.
If you have questions regarding PremierVoice, please contact 745-3211 for residential, 761-2699 for business, or toll free 1-800-478-3211.
