CELL PHONE VOICEMAIL

Verizon Voicemail is provided for each cell phone. To set up voicemail, you must dial the cell phone number and interrupt it with a # sign, and enter the password. The initial password is 1 plus the last 4 digits of the cell phone number.

All MICA cell phones are given 350 allowable minutes on the America Choice Plan unless the department approves a higher plan based on usage. This plan covers any long-distance service in the United States. Monthly summaries of Cell phone usage is sent to the respective Department Head. If a Cell phone user continually goes over the minutes then the Department Head has the right to take away the cell phone privilege.

Please remember that all cell phones come with a 2-year contract, so if an employee leaves, that cell phone must be passed on to another employee otherwise Mica incurs a $175 early contract termination fee.

If you are experiencing any problems with your cell phone, please contact Help Desk at help@mica.edu.
