delay in voicemail on google voice

[eskanday]

I noticed that voicemails left on google voice are late in showing up despite i did the refresh time 5 minutes. It is taking sometimes few hours. Anybody has the same problem? I check the option to have the voicemails to be sent as an SMS to avoid delay in knowing about my voicemails.
thanks

Any help? I'm having the same problem. Got a critical call for work at 3:00 AM. Went straight to voicemail without ringing and google voice did not alert me until 9:00 AM - 6 hours later!!! Ready to give up on it unless there are any ideas here. Thanks.

I am actually the exact opposite... I am often surprised at how quickly I get voicemaill messages from Google Voice... they almost always come immediately after the call. But to be safe, I have my Google Voice account set up to send me a Text message and an e-mail when a new voicemail arrives... these always come instantaneously upon a new message being received, and would be what I would recommend if you are getting delays on the Google Voice notification.

It's amazing how slowly the gv app updates when voicemails come in. I also have it set up to E-mail new voicemails. When I get that notification I open up the gv app and then it recognizes new voicemails.

What do you have your refresh set for?

If you check running apps (Menu>Settings>Application Settings>Running Services), do you see Google Voice listed as running (this is the process that checks your Google Voice inbox as the interval set in your GV settings)

When setting up to go fwd VM to Gmail, the GV Inbox refresh on your phone is out of the loop. Gmail pushes to the Droid so as soon as GV forwards to Gmail you should see the Gmail notify on your notify bar almost immediately.

So far this has worked flawlessly for me.

my google voice build number is 0.2.8. If it is working well for you, what is ur build number?
thanks

I'm using 0.2.8 and having no problems with it what-so-ever

I noticed this too. I have google voice email my voicemails to my gmail account. They come in instantly while google voice takes a while. Set yours to email you (with a transcript). While the transcript isn't great, most of the time you get the gist of the message.
