I turn the Ooma answering feature off by setting to 59? rings. Ooma refuses to add a beeper to the machine and my Telo is hidden. I can't pick up a handset and look for messages every time I re-enter the house, I can interrogate my Vtech machine remotely anyway.
 
Is there a reason you don't use email notification? I rarely get my messages via the box, but instead just listen from the website either from a computer or cell phone. It's good too because if you ever need to you can download a message and archive it.

Email only happens in the Premier service and that costs 350%  of the Basic costs. I had it included  for the introductory two months but decided to give it a go without it for the first year  to see if I can live without the extra features. I just got to the point last year I was sick of paying out over $400 / month for communication/ entertainment services. I took some drastic measures and ended up with better services.
 
Ooma is better and worse than a landline in certain ways but the Premier service was a few bucks that I decided against. After about a year I am just breaking even on the costs against my copper landline even at the $3.98 per month. I may reconsider this year.
 
Let's try this damn forum edit one more time. If I hit the del key it deletes the whole paragraph. GRRRRRRRRR...
The only people that ever call my Ooma phone is my next door neighbours. You know the retirees without a cell phone? Most other people I know never call,,, they BBM and some of the left behind ones even use the old fashioned text messaging.

Interesting.... I'm on the completely free plan (not even service fees) and I have email notification. Perhaps it was a carry-over with my account from so many years ago??? I don't even remember how many years it's been.
 
Canadian Dealer does it too!

OOma is great. I had Vonage for many years, but finally got sick of the fact that they had no means to block a phone number.  OOma Premier is cheaper, and has lots more features.
