Would turning off all push notifications in Community also affect my Account?

BEER — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 09:36:57 GMT

Everytime I make a lomg distance call I get a pop up warning that my account will be charged LD charges. Other then it being an annoyance it doesn't affect anything. Was wondering If I were to turn off all push notifications in Community settings if that would also affect my Account and solve my pop up annoyance.

Exceedingly doubtful. The only thing connecting the Community to the account is the email address for the sake of rewards.

Of course by now you would know that you can avoid the pop-up by using the 1 in front.

I would say that pop-up is your phone. Maybe there's a setting somewhere in your dialer.

Thanks - I didn't know that adding "1" before a tele number would solve the annoyance pop-up. Will accept your post as SOLUTION..............Thanks again!

@BEER, are you saying pop-up to describe the voice message, or are you actually seeing a pop-up message on your device?

I've never seen a dialogue display that message when making a long distance call.

@BEER push email notifications for this community forum have nothing to do with the phone prompt for long distance charges. Maybe it's just me, but I'm not even sure how you were able to connect the two things, based on your previous posts. You're just yanking our chain. Lol, jokes. Happy Friday.

@Pizzaeh I'm really hoping that @BEER was being silly.

Yes meant voice message. This happens even when I put the number “1” before the telephone number. The voice message in part warns that long distance charges may apply. It’s not a big deal but it’s just a bit annoying. ————I asked the subject heading, that may seem a bit silly, because of the connection between our community email is also our account log in name and obviously also our account email.

Isn't terminology fun?! I would generally interpret "voice message" as being a voicemail left in the voicemail box. I would generally say that that "voice message" you're getting is a recording telling you something.

But maybe we're all still confused about this pop-up you've mentioned. When exactly does it occur? And what does it say?
