At the time they sent a txt message to my with details on how to activate you voicemail on the Roger&#8217;s wireless service. Well with Christmas, exams and a conference on the way, I didn&#8217;t really have time at the time to setup. I know it only takes a few minutes, but I didn&#8217;t even have time to shovel the driveway let alone activate my mailbox.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>So in January, I no longer have the text message with the details and my Blackberry Pearl only holds that data for 30 days. So I thought it would be appropriate to call in and ask for my temporary password. I had A) ALL the account information. B) the account password C) I could answer any questions &#8230; but I am not the official account holder. So the gentleman wouldn&#8217;t help me.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, if anyone at Roger&#8217;s ever listens to this. On a shared account, if the person has ALL of the information concerning the account and all they want is a simple temporary password to SETUP their voicemail, give it to them. It doesn&#8217;t make any sense to not do to privacy concerns&#8230; ok worst case, someone steals your phone and does what calls Rogers to setup an empty voicemail account. Seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Now for anyone in a similar position to me:<\/p>\n<p>The temporary password for Roger&#8217;s wireless is the last 4 digits of your phone number, or for web orders it is 1 + the last 4 digits. If your phone was mailed to you it could also be 1+month+day it was activated. So if you got your phone on October 4th, it would be 11004<\/p>\n<p>If you have information for other providers, feel free to leave it in the comments for others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok, so in November I signed up for this family plan with my mom and my brother.
