Leave a message after the beep

14 June 2005 23:44 GMT / By Stuart Miles

Skype has launched yet another service, this time its Skype Voicemail, a application that allows customers to continually maintain their Skype availability and ubiquity, even while offline.

First available in beta in April 2005, Skype Voicemail is Skype's second pre-paid premium offering.

Customers with Skype Voicemail can leave unlimited Voicemail messages for all Skype users when they are unavailable or offline, and can receive Voicemails from any caller. Unlike standard voicemail systems, Skype Voicemail also allows customers the flexibility to send pre-recorded voice greetings to any other Skype user, regardless if the recipient is also a subscriber to the service.

Skype Voicemail subscriptions are available for €5 ($7)* for 3 months or €15 ($19) for one year.
