Right now, you might be wondering, "What is the cost of Action800 Nationwide VoiceMail?"

Since we began in 1977, we've tried many systems, and we've interviewed many thousands of clients, about the phone calls and information at the heart of a business, or a private life.

Although every person is unique, many problems are the same. And we've found some of the simplest, most cost-effective solutions available in the world, and here they are ...

Action800 Prices

The first plans listed are our "Basic Services" -- our most popular packages, with many features built-in at no extra cost. Next are listed "Add-On and Other Services", which are optional.
 

"Basic Services"
These three packages are our most popular packages, because of their power and low cost:

* includes 'call-detail' report with
listing of every caller's phone number
and time billed in 6-second increments.

The Professional 800-VoiceMail package includes your own private 800-Number, with message-taking box attached. It can play an outgoing greeting of up to three minutes, and will take up to 40 four-minute messages. It will hold these messages awaiting your pickup for up to two weeks, and you may keep a played message for three days. Your calls arrive on the high-quality IXC digital-fiber network and phone lines are specially wired so that a dozen or more callers can enter your mailbox at the same time.

Your voice mailbox is passcode protected, and includes (at no extra cost) the Caller's menu, Greeting Bypass, Time and Date, Tollsaver, and Quick-Keys features. (If you prefer, you may have your voice mailbox programmed to provide 'Announce-Only' service, where no messages are taken.) All features and how to use them are described fully in the 33-page User's Guide, which you may download from the 'Library' section of this website. Service is provided 7 days a week around the clock, and you may test the service for up to ten days risk-free under our 'Universal Guarantee.'

To start the Professional 800-VoiceMail service we must receive a one-time set-up fee of $20, plus first and last month's service at $9.95, for a total of $39.90 to begin service. On this plan, we'll charge your credit-card monthly for the base rate, plus accrued minutes at 14 cents per minute. You'll receive a monthly statement via email detailing charges made and a free 'call-detail' report showing all calls into your 800-Number with date and time and the calling number.

The High-Capacity 800-VoiceMail package is most useful for sales or information presentation, giving you an expanded greeting which can talk to callers for up to seven minutes! It has all features of the Professional package, including taking up to 40 four-minute messages and storing them for two weeks. Contains all the other features too, and risk-free trial under our 'Universal Guarantee.'

To start the High-Capacity 800-VoiceMail package we must receive a one-time set-up fee of $20, plus first and last month's service at $12.95, for a total of $45.90 to begin service. Just as on the Professional plan, we'll charge your credit-card monthly for the base rate, plus accrued minutes at 14 cents per minute. You'll receive a monthly statement via email detailing charges made and a free 'call-detail' report showing all calls into your 800-Number with date and time and the calling number.

The Caller-Choice Box with four sub-boxes system contains the same features, plus your caller may choose box #1, box #2, box#3, or box#4. Each of these 'sub-boxes' can be a Message-Taking box (2-minute greeting) or 'Announce-Only' box (five-minute greeting). This system is most commonly used in one of two ways:

1. As an "Audio Brochure" which is a 24-hour talking brochure to tell callers about your services. For example, "To hear about Blue Beezers press 1, or to hear about Green Gowsers press 2, or to hear about ..." You may select any combination of Announce-Only or Message-Taking sub-boxes, but standard configuration is three Announce plus one Message-Taking.

2. As a "Company Message Center" to provide your company with an 800-voicemail number which then permits callers to select the message-taking box for Al or Bill or Carl or Dave. For example, "To leave a message for Al press 1, or to leave a message for Bill press 2, or to leave ..." You may select any combination of Announce-Only or Message-Taking sub-boxes, but standard configuration is four Message boxes.

Of course, you can combine these functions. With the "Caller-Choice" system you can have any combination of Announce-Only or Message-Taking boxes. You may use two, three, or all four of the sub-boxes. If you need more than four sub-boxes (often called 'extensions'), additional sub-boxes are only $5 monthly, and any re-programming is $5 per box.

To set up the "Caller-Choice" system we must receive a one-time set-up fee of $30, plus first and last month's service at $15.95, for a total of $61.90 to begin service. As before, we will charge your credit-card each month for the base rate, plus accrued minutes at 14 cents per minute. You'll receive a monthly statement via email detailing charges made and a free 'call-detail' report showing all calls into your 800-Number with date and time and the calling number. (And you get the ten-day risk-free trial under our 'Universal Guarantee.')

On any of these plans, there is a minimum monthly 800-Number time charge of $1 per box. If you are uncertain of your exact needs, we suggest you try the simplest solution first. You can convert one package to the other on your same 800-Number if need be. If you wish statements sent by postal mail or if you wish billing rather than use of a credit card for payment, we can do so at slightly higher rates and/or with an appropriate deposit on hand.

"Add-On and Other Services"
The following features and services are optional, and may be added to either of the above packages. Sorry, we do not offer any of these optional services unless you have one of the above packages.

• Group Features - If you have several voice mailboxes which are used for message-taking, you can add features that make it easier to communicate back and forth among the members of your group. For example, when you receive a message, you can pass it to Joe, along with your comments. He then can press one key to reply back to your voicemail, and so forth. This will permit you to carry on an on-going conversation even if you're working different hours in different cities in different time zones. OR you can broadcast a message to everyone at once (or just to some). For full details, download the 33-page User's Guide from the 'Library' section of this website. The cost? $3 per box per month, with a one-time programming charge of $5 per box.
• Message Relay - Your voice mailbox can call you at a predetermined phone number (your home or business) and relay your messages to you. Passcode protected, of course, so that only you will receive your relayed messages. Cost? $5 monthly, plus 14 cents per minute for out-dial time, with a one-time set-up fee of $5.
• Paging Service - If you have a pager, your voice mailbox can page you when you have messages waiting. Cost? $5 per month, plus 5cents per page, with a one-time set-up fee of $5.
• VoiceMail 'Directory' - If you have an Audio Brochure system including message-taking boxes for staff members, we can custom-program so that callers can enter (on the touch-tone) the first few letters of staff-members name to obtain the correct extension number. This is at custom-programming rates ($70 per hour) so call Customer Service for an estimate.
• 'Rotation' VoiceMail - Used in organizations to take incoming sales-lead messages and distribute them in rotation to several voice mailboxes in turn. Call Customer Service.
• Listing in the 'Toll-Free' Directory at (800) 555-1212 - $40 per month, with $40 last-month deposit, plus one-time set-up fee of $50. Six-month minimum contract required. Call Customer Service for details.
