Sprint Call Tones
 
Does anyone else use call tones?

I had a dilemna today. I got a call from a place that I sent my resume into. I have "La Tortura" playing for my call tone. They must've thought my voicemail came on right away so hung up. I called back saying I had a missed call from there, blah blah. Anyways I turned off the call tones in case I got any other interview calls, since I probably lost this one.

So my question is... I'm tryin to set it to where it only plays from 7pm-7am but it won't reset and it's aggravating. Does anyone know what to do? It said you have to make a group and add numbers and all this crap but I don't wana do that.

It's like, I think they're called, Verizon Ringback? I don't remember who came out with it first, but when someone calls you, instead of the caller hearing the normal "ring ring", it plays a song.

Ohhh is that what it is? Ok. A few of my friends have that and I always hang up right away because I think it is their voicemail.


Listen. I would get rid of it completely if I were you. Especially if you are trying to get a job. It's not very professional you know?

You might not want to have that feature right now. It's too new so a lot of people don't know what it is yet. You don't want to confuse people. I don't have any friends that have that yet, but I can't wait till they do get it. I see it as one more opportunity to judge and criticize poor taste.

If I called someone and some gay ass laffy taffy song came on I would hang up.

Lol I know about the unprofessional thing. That's why I was trying to figure out how to set it to the 7pm-7am feature. I freakin wasted money for these ringers.

I have one...and now everyone thinks it's the wrong number or something is messed up with my phone.

It makes me mad because I think I have a cool call tone. I may have to change it though.

My daughter's father has this. Every time I call him I hear Biggie. It confuses me.

They are different than ring tones. Instead of hearing a ring tone when someone calls you, you are hearing a call tone when you call someone else. My sister used to have one but has thankfully realized how unprofessional they are & has removed it. Everytime I called her I heard Destiny's Child.:rolleyes:

I didn't know that either.

I doubt I'll get it though. I already have a local radio station guy speaking on my voicemail's outgoing message and people already get confused.

Um, take the loss. If you are trying to find a job I'd take it off completely. You shouldn't worry about setting it for 10:31- 1:19 until you've taken care of business.

Gotta spend the money to make the money baby. Spendy spendy for the makey makey.

my x had this with t-mobile and before the song played you heard him say, "please hold while your call is connected" i thought it was stupid, but i'm sure it prevented hang ups... maybe sprint has a similar service???
