Network Operations sent out an email today to the cellular coordinators alerting them to this change; however, a small number of the email messages bounced back. So, some of the customers may not be aware of the change and may end up calling the DoIT Help Desk to report a problem with their cellular voice mail.

If you get a call relating specifically to cellular voice mail, here's what you should do:

    Inform the customer to call 1-888-944-9400 or *611 to get information on this change from U.S. Cellular.

These calls may occur during the next week as customers become aware of the change.
