how to download / save voicemail messages?

[garybeck]

does anyone know how i can download or save my voicemail messages as a file (mp3, wav...)??

my son has a virgin mobile account but with a newer phone and it came with a voicemail app that has an option to download, forward to email, etc... mine does not have this option.

I've been told I can set up a google voice account and forward my voicemail to it... but if there's a simpler way I can just grab my voicemails as audio files instead of setting up a new service, that would be great. anyone know of one that works with optimus V and VM?

thanks

My Mom used a company to save her voicemails as Mp3s. She had a few of her brother that passed away a few years ago. Not sure if its what you're looking for, check it out Save Voicemail Messages Permanently with Voicemails Forever

Google Voice is easy to set up and relatively painless. Any time I would get a voicemail it would be attached to an email for easy downloading.
