147 voice mail

A 147 voice mail!

In the United States, a 147 voice mail is a common feature offered by many phone service providers, including landline and mobile carriers. Here's what it typically means:

147 is the standard code for leaving a voice mail message. When you dial 147, you're prompted to record a message for the recipient, who will receive the message when they check their voice mail.

Here's how it usually works:

1. You dial 147 from your phone.
2. You're asked to record a message, which can be up to a certain length (usually around 3-4 minutes).
3. You speak your message, and the system records it.
4. The message is then stored on the recipient's voice mail server.
5. When the recipient checks their voice mail, they can listen to your recorded message.

Some common uses for 147 voice mail include:

• Leaving a message for someone who's not available to take a call.
• Sharing information or updates with someone.
• Sending a quick message to someone who's away from their phone.

Of course, with the rise of digital communication methods like text messaging, email, and social media, the use of 147 voice mail has decreased somewhat. However, it's still a convenient and reliable way to leave a message for someone, especially in situations where a quick, spoken message is more effective than a written one.
