Wireless Features - Voice Connect
AT&T Voice Connect TM offers three great services in one—voice dialer, voice information services, and voice entertainment services.
Regular airtime charges apply to Voice Connect calls. Mobile to Mobile minutes do not apply. Calls to 911, 411, 611, 711, and international dialing cannot be completed with Voice Connect services. When using Voice Connect, Caller ID cannot be blocked. Caller ID will be delivered on all calls, even if you have permanently blocked your name and number. Voice Connect services are provided by BeVocal. Certain other restrictions and fees may apply.
Exemption Program
AT&T may waive the monthly feature charge for those with qualifying disabilities. Normal airtime charges apply to all calls made using Voice Connect (now VoiceDial). Learn more about our VoiceDial Exemption Program.
Using Voice Dialer
You say it—we dial it. Our voice dialer does all the work. Make calls by dialing *8 (*08 on some GSM models) and say the name or number of the person you're calling. Examples:
