Title says it all. I need a way to get rid of the 20 cent charge per minute for Sprint's call forwarding, and if you think you have the capability to get this done for me on my account, I'm willing to pay to get it done.

PM me.

Thx.

Corporate accounts can get integrated office for $4/month which includes free call forwarding.

Thank you. I set that up and now I'm good. Using YouMail with free call forwarding on 2 lines.

YouMail is awesome - I forward all my unanswered/busy calls to them and I get a txt and/or e-mail whenever I get a missed call or a voicemail. And the voicemails come with an mp3 attachment so I can listen to it right from my phone. This way, I get all my voicemails saved in my e-mail so they are easily searchable and never get deleted.

There are other features like custom greetings (free) and transcription (paid) which I don't currently have a need for.

Yes. As they say in MacWorld -- "There's an app for that."

Great news! Sprint has removed the 20c/minute charge for call forwarding. This means that as a Sprint customer using YouMail, you will no longer need to pay additional call forwarding fees.Sprint customers just dial a simple code to forward their unanswered calls to YouMail.If you ever need to re-activate your phone with YouMail, dial *289095106169 and press ‘Talk/Send’ right from your mobile phone. If you're unsuccessful activating call forwarding, contact Sprint Technical Support at 888-211-4727 for assistance.

Subject: Clarification about YouMail on SprintWe recently sent out an e-mail that YouMail is free to Sprint users because Sprint dropped call forwarding charges.We need to clarify.First, Sprint is dropping “conditional call forwarding” charges – charges for calls are forwarded when they are busy or unanswered. This is the conditional call forwarding that YouMail users need, so it’s good news. However:• As Sprint has announced officially, this will be happening in mid-November. However, the exact date has not been finalized or announced by Sprint.• Sprint is making no changes to immediate/unconditional call forwarding (which uses *72 on the handset to set up) - this usage will continue to cost 20c/minute.  Second, the special dialing codes for turning on conditional call forwarding, like *28, may work now from your handset, but they are not officially guaranteed to work until mid-November. If it doesn’t work on your handset, please do not call or contact Sprint customer care, but wait for the follow up from YouMail when the final announcement by Sprint is made.We’re excited Sprint is making this change – perhaps too excited, since we have jumped the gun with our announcement. We’re sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused.Regards,

Alex
CEO, YouMail

If you had read my post above, you'd know there's a date and reason stated.
I'm not familiar with YouMail, but the vast majority of people are excited (and the biggest reason they are doing this according to Sprint and Google is) because of Google Talk.

Google is actually working directly with Sprint about this, however YouMail may be offering a similar service.
