Welcome – slydial

I'm wondering if there is a place and use for this less-personal type of communication in our business.... perhaps reminder calls for upcoming shows? One thing I can think of is that they'd be less likely to delete your voicemail because they weren't given a heads-up that it was you that called and left a message....
 
Is this like postcalls?
 
Never heard of it, can't access the site at work. I don't know if I would use it, but I don't use Post Calls either. I wouldn't delete the message personally, I do occasionally get messages when my phone doesn't ring.
 
Phonevite.com too., it is suppose to be a free service. I you input the phone numbers and you record the message and set the time for the calls to be made. You can also check to see what call's went through.
 
How many people check voice mails on a regular basis?
 
i don't check my voicemails...if i don't know the number that called i delete it and if it is from someone i know i usually just call them back...i hate checking my voicemail!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Slydial and how does it work?

Slydial is a service that allows users to connect directly to someone's voicemail without their phone ringing. When you call a Slydial number, it routes your call to the voicemail of the intended recipient, enabling you to leave a message without the person knowing you called.

Can Slydial help me avoid deleted voicemails?

Yes, Slydial can help you avoid the situation where your voicemail is deleted before the recipient listens to it. By directly reaching their voicemail, you can leave a message without the recipient being alerted to your call, which may increase the chances of them listening to your message.

Is using Slydial ethical?

The ethics of using Slydial can be subjective. Some people may view it as a useful tool for communication, while others may see it as deceptive since the recipient is not aware that you called. It's important to consider the nature of your relationship with the person you are contacting and whether they would appreciate this method of communication.

Are there any limitations to using Slydial?

Yes, there are limitations. Slydial may not work with all phone carriers, and some users may have their voicemail settings configured to block such calls. Additionally, frequent use of Slydial could lead to the recipient becoming suspicious if they notice a pattern of missed calls followed by voicemails.

How much does Slydial cost?

Slydial offers a free version that allows limited use, but for more frequent use or additional features, there is a paid subscription option. Pricing details can vary, so it's best to check their official website for the most current information on costs and plans.
