CALL THIS NUMBER
(206) 337-8887
WHAT IS THIS?
The number listed above is a voicemail-only box that I have set up for random people to call and leave me messages.
IS THIS SOME KIND OF TRICK?
No! This is NOT some trick. This number is VOICE MAIL ONLY! It doesn’t call some random person in a random state. This isn’t some kind of prank being played on a pledge or some other nonsense like that. What happens is that when you call and leave a message the service sends me an email containing the message. It doesn’t save your number. I have no idea who leaves the messages (unless you specifically say your name). You’re anonymous. Say whatever you want! Make it hilarious, sing a song, or just tell me off. Whatever!
AM I GOING TO BE CHARGED IF I CALL THIS NUMBER?
The short answer to this is… maybe. It all depends on your service plans. Most local (U.S.) non-prepaid services have unlimited nights (and possibly weekends). If you call during that time then no, you shouldn’t get charged. But check your service plan before you call it. I’m not responsible if you have to pay a few cents to leave a message. International callers will most likely be charged, sadly. I don’t know if you can use something like Google Voice to call it for free as I’ve never messed with that service.
WHY AM I DOING THIS?
I’m interested in what people have to say to a total stranger. Consider it an experiment. Okay, truthfully? I’m bored and am looking for a new interesting way to brighten up my day. The last time I set this service up I got some pretty interesting calls. Everything from a song about cats to a call from New Zealand. It was pretty awesome. I’m hoping to get some good calls like that again.
Hope to hear your messages soon!
