I realy don’t like how after my answer machine comes on there is an extra 30 seconds of someone explaining what to do. I thought that "please leave your message at the sound of the beep" was prety self explanitory enough…

And I feel that this thing is driving people away for leaving a message because they don’t feel like waisting an extra 30 seconds of their time waiting for the beep… And I like messages so I would know what they wanted at the time.

Does anyone know how to deactivate this feature?
