Help [VZW] Visual Voice Mail

New to the Galaxy Nexus, came from a long line of HTC Devices over Sprint, but decided to move to a provider who actually has LTE, instead of one who sells LTE phones with no network.


Anyway, the only issue I have come across is the lack of Visual Voice Mail. I had grown used to what the HTC had for their voice mail. Just a simple app that lets you know who called, when, and give the option to listen to the message. Looking for something similar to use on the GNex.

From looking around here, it seems that most people recommend Google Voice. This will not work for me. I already have my phone number tied into a separate GV Account that I use for work. So, I cannot add the number again to just use the Voice mail features.


Is anyone else using something different than GV for Voice mail?? I could go with the VZW Visual Voice mail for Nexus, but not interested in paying $2.99 a month for use of it. Looking for something free that will give me an experience similar to what I had with the HTC (HTC Touch, Hero, Evo 4G, Evo 3D has been my progression trough Sprint).
 
Here is a question that I do not even know if anyone will have an answer to.

If I have both GV and Youmail on my phone, will there be issues with call forwarding based on me not answering a given call ??
 
I believe Youmail will take precedence since you have to program the phone to forward the call to Youmail's processing number. GV won't pick it up then.
